you mean "sort of" chubby chasers like myself

The difference is, by modeling, they're putting themselves out in the public eye, they're inviting us to judge.

As far as the issue that some people like it; and? (edit: to use an analogy: ) Am I to not criticize particular bands on this forum just because some people like it?

It's still an insult, why not call them unattractive? I don't think you need to be reminded about eating disorders.

Criticizing a particular band isn't a good analogy, it's not personal. Just like criticizing one's argument is fair game, but criticizing a person's character is usually frowned upon.

I'm sorry but as someone who wears clothes UK 14-16 I'm finding some of the answers here insulting. I'm not fat. Also Hip Hop Bunny Hops arguments are invalid, you all should have learned that by now.

Vanilla specified the size after I gave my answer. You're also like 5'11 or something I think so the size doesn't apply so much.
I was talking about overweight women in general, not any particular size.

Rule of thumb: if they weigh more than I do, I'm probably not interested.

Criticizing a persons character in the midst of an argument is known as an ad hominem attack. This is frowned upon because it's a logical fallacy employed in the midst of an argument to distract from the issue at hand.

Criticizing disgusting fatty models is akin to ****ty criticizing bands, because (1) both are putting themselves out there asking to be judged, and (2) it takes a lot of time & effort to get to that point.

If some models don't want to be called a disgusting fatty, they have a few options: (1) stop modelling, (2) lose weight. Boom.

Clothing sizes are vastly different between the UK and over here. I think we're talking about 18+ UK, 12+ NA.

I understand what you're saying. Just because a situation doesn't logically call for a little empathy, doesn't mean you shouldn't watch your tongue.

You're fully within your rights to do so, this is clearly a situation of differing morals.
