Just eat something already!

[lisamoe]

So I was looking at a news magazine tonight and there was some fashion news that had pictures of current runway models. I know this just sounds like sour grapes, but seriously, those girls looked a little ill. I mean, their figures were a little unpadded for my taste, but that wasn't the bad part. It was their faces, which were so gaunt and hollow-eyed that it was kind of disturbing. I'm not sure I'd want to try to look like that, even if I could.

Don't get me wrong, I'd probably give a standard deviation worth of IQ points to be 30 pounds thinner. Obviously, I don't dislike slim women; I'd like to be one (or reasonably fit, anyway.) But these girls just didn't look good at all. They looked haggard and old, with weird scrawny old lady necks, although I'm sure they were all quite young. Anyhow, I know the world would disagree with me, but I think I'd rather look like I do than look ultra-thin and ill.

And I bet with the lights off, I'm more bouncy fun anyway. :-)

I simply refer you to my comment to willco's LJ entry of Feb. 6, 2003 about Mia Tyler. I don't think I could express my opinion any clearer here.
