Uhhmm, May 15th posting Anonymous, where exactly did you get your information? I'd like to see your statistics about the connection between body weight and harrassment/abuse. Also, actually it is often fat women who are unfortunately stereotyped as dumb, easy, and desperate; I can't say I've ever really heard that said generally about thin women. Then again, in our culture, we're all kind of

True. Plus size girls are often seen as scary and unfeminine, especially to some male photographers, both professional and amateur. This happens a lot in the modeling industry. In fact, plus size girls get hit on respectfully by guys than slimmer girls. Slimmer girls on the other hand, are more likely to get raped, harassed, abused, and even get taken advantage of because guys tend to be

Well I'll probably be tuning in tonight to see how she does! I thought that was an interesting observation that 'plus size' models are more often posed in friendly, non-vixen poses while the smaller models have more blatantly sexual poses. Maybe it could be because larger women are perceived to be 'out of control' on a regular basis...you know...with voracious appetites for sex...? Then again..

I don't know if you've ever noticed the reaction of straight men around the models, but when the girls were in the firehouse, the firemen were clearly drooling over Whitney. She has more sex appeal than any of the rest.I have a pin-up girl calendar, and Whitney would be a little on the small side for these va-va-va-voom pictures. I would love for Whitney to win, but it is tragic that size 10 is

Don't even get me started on Tyra...she contradicts herself all over the place. She hasn't got a clue of what body acceptance is really about. If she did, she wouldn't have started this show which is in my opinion only contributing to the need for young girls to be thinner. Anyway, I'm happy for Whitney and really hope she wins. It will be nice to see a girl with a little meat on her bones. Oh

Whitney is going to win. Too bad she seems like a total jerk.
