yes! Because the average (meaning real) woman is around a size 14. Things like that is reason why soo many girls are starving themselves or making themselves throw-up or eating up as much ex-lax as they can.

That's so f**ked. Marilyn Monroe was a Size 14, and in her day models weighed 8-10% less than the average American. Nowadays models weigh 28-30% less than the average American. The fashion industry claims there's such a discrepancy because so many Americans are overweight, but how many supermodels and Holly-weird actresses have to drop from eating disorders before they wake up and take notice? Heck, my wife is very skinny (she has myotonic muscular dystrophy) and she's a Size 10! What's going on?

I DO wear a size 14 & So what if size 7 is the new 14. Last season Purple was the new black, red was the new white, don't eat chicken because bird flu, don't eat beef cuz BSE( mad cow disease) e.t.c
There will always be something..............
Continue with your life & b happy cuz the size 7 model's hair is falling out cuz of a lack of iron, her teeth r yellow cuz a lack or vitamin c. Just 2 stay that size we don't want to sacrifice our health 4 beauty & now adays what EXCATLY is beauty defined as!!!!!!!!!!!

No, I would not get mad because I don't pay too much attention to what magazines think. All magazine articles that concentrate on weight and fashion are really shallow and they do not set a good example for our youth today. Magazines also air brush all the women's bodies so you don't know what a "real woman" really looks like.
Real women have blemishes, scars, pimples, and some hair. Those air brushed models are not "real".
Cheers

I'm a little bothered by the implications of that statement because I wear a size 7.

I think fashion designers just want women to basically disappear. Anything below a 10 for a grown woman is too skinny. 12-14 are actually average.

That would piss me off but Hollywood is nothing but people who throw up their food so a size 2 is big to them. I love my size 7!!

Hell no that's why the size tag is on the inside. If everyone else was supposed to know it would be on the outside. No one knows what size someone is.
