Female, old... :)

My younger daughter is a natural (not anorexic) size 0-2, and I think she looks great.. but she takes after her naturally skinny father, not me! However she thinks she's too skinny and wants to gain weight! I tell her.. wait til you have a baby or two.. nature will take over!

I think it's horrible that young women who would normally be a healthy size 8 or so try to starve themselves into a size 0! I know clothes designers want their garments to be displayed attractively on slim bodies, but whatever happened to the 'fashion size 6' being standard? That's still very slim.. the clothes will look good and the models healthy!

It's sad to see size 12 or 14 models called 'plus sized'... makes those of us who really ARE BBW's think we must be freaks! I would LOVE to fit a 14 again :)

Size 0 is only okay if you are naturally built that way and NOT underweight. I've always said people can't help the way they are built, but when people force themselves down to an unnaturally small size, it's not healthy and dangerous.

I'm only 5ft2, but I'd still have to weigh 90lb-100lb max to be a true size 0, so that is very unhealthy for me. However, there might be someone else my height with very small bone structure and is a size 0 because they are naturally very petite and still be healthy.

And when I say size 0, I mean measurements 31-23-33 as I know a lot of people think they are a size 0, and it's really just vanity sizing and they are more like a true size 2 or 4, which is fine.

HTH : )

Well i guess it depends. Some women I suppose are "naturally" thinner but i dont really think being a size 00 is natural! Hah! Thats a joke. Size 0 models project an image that causes many young women and girls to become anorexic...Basically, unless your 9 years old, you should wear at least a WOMENS size 2+...You should be womanly and filled up by then. A size 0 is indeed sickening....

i think having all size 0 models on these cat walks are only encouraging young teenagers to be that size and to get to this size they are becoming either belimic or anorexic and also depressed!! Doctors, government and parents are wondering why!!! Fair enough if they were born that way!! but most of these models are ill!!! They should have a range of different sized models for the larger teenagers!!! I am 21 years old and female!!

Age: 18
Sex: Female

Unless they are biologically size 0 i think it's gross. Why would you wanna look like that? Those girls often don't have breasts or butt or hips for that matter no figure whatsoever! I'm happy with my body well actually my butt could get some toning and be like kirsten dunsts in the movie marie antoinette but hey we all have our vices! Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and for some their beauty is just a little bit larger than sizes 0-6.

I am a 36 yo male. I do not agree with models being that thin. Models should be normal size and shape for whatever you consider normal, but someone deliberately that skinny should be put on a weight gain diet immediately.

It would be impossible for women of average height or taller to maintain a size 0 with out starving themselves to death. These women already look like they are dead! What ever happened to the "Perfect 10"? A size 10 is plenty small!

I am a Canadian, I am turning 21 in July, and I am female. I don't agree with Size 0 models, either. People that thin, could go to a psychologist, a doctor, and a nutritionist. But unfortunately, it is up to them if they could go to treatment or not, which is very sad.
I had many people in my life, who got very sick, and a lot of them died as a result, of being to thin.

The average American woman is size 12. Size 0 models r not what ppl want 2 c. Yes size 0 is on the verge of being anorexic. They make gurlz envious & want 2 b like them, causing all the issues/crazes associated with weight/dieting. I think models should hav mor meat on their bones 4 real. Eat some McDonald's plz!!!!!!!!!!

Sizes vary from yountry to country. Size L in the US could be XXXL in sicily. A weight to height ratio to determine if a woman is underweight is more accurate. There are only extreme exceptions to it like women doing roids and weighing 170+lbs because of it while beeing really lean at the same time.
