Life is like a box of chocolates... Or not.
It's an age old argument, 'what do you prefer, big girls or skinny girls'. Truth is, it's personal preference, so there is no right answer, it's verging on being a rhetorical question. But let's break this 'rhetoric' down a bit.
This is Candice Swanepoel, a Victoria's Secret model, she is in the public eye constantly, with this figure. I personally see nothing sexy about her figure, if she stood up straight there would be no clear definition between her hips and thighs, it's almost like she has a 10 year old's body, which is wrong in so many ways! Yet she is thrust into the public eye on television and such and shown to the world, girls then see her and want to look like she does, creating all kinds of issues, Bulimia, Anorexia, mental health problems (depression), due to girls who aren't NATURALLY this skinny failing at obtaining this silly weight. This coupled with adverts on television of skinny girls modelling clothes just adds fuel to the fire.

Doutzen Kroes, another Victoria's secret model, yet look at the stark difference between the two! She looks healthier, her swimsuit isn't looking like it's going to fall off due to no hips to grip to, she epitomises the curvier figure, without looking overweight, there is a fine line between 'curvy' and overweight.
If magazines continue to use all these skinny models in their campaigns, and plastering them all over adverts and television and other popular media, then we are going to be inundated with ant-figured women everywhere, and the decline of the sight of a natural woman is going to be a thing of the past, picture a world where every girl looked like they were an under-developed 10 year old boy, buck the trend girls! Put down the brainwashing magazines, turn off the television adverts, and go and enjoy your life as it's intended, don't spend your existence on this planet worrying about how everyone else percieves you. It's a never ending cycle, and before you know it, your going to be too old to do anything about it anyway, and then the ageing blues start and the process repeats itself. GO LIVE!
