I can see your point but I think that making fun of people for being thin is inextricably tied to making fun of people for being fat. For example, as this article describes, people were mocking thin people by assuming that they can only be thin on the assumption that they never, ever eat anything fun. It's the other…

I'm sorry, being made fun of for being thin is just not the same as being made fun of for being fat. Apparently, some people felt it was inappropriate for me to share my height/weight ratio. I was only trying to explain that I AM thin and I think it's akin to a white person thinking cracker is as bad as nigger to say…

in other...excellent...news, i just google image searched that american apparel one because i think the top is super cute, and on their website i was invited to "Chat With Our Watermelon Prints Expert." BEST JOB EVER.

"Almost every body type" I think means "almost every body type popular culture thinks is acceptable to appear in public as a female in a swimsuit. You also aren't expected to do anything once in that swimsuit. Swim, beach volleyball, eat ice cream? Nope.

Their bodies are still perfectly proportional. The next time a magazine shows someone with a double chin or has stomach larger than their hips I'll celebrate. The women in that picture are still ideal body type. All these women (including the Lucky models) are varying shades of hourglass. The waists come in, not out.

I'm fat with stretch marks. Ditto on the bikini thought (although I'm trying to psych myself into a high-waisted 50s style). My stretch marks aren't those cute little silvery lines that some women have- I look like I've been clawed by a large predator from pubis to breasts. Not attractive at all :(

It sort of agitates me as a fat woman who is also body positive (in that I want ALL bodies to be accepted) that in order for men and women to make "brave statements about beauty" they have to get naked. What's up with that? I'm not a modest person at all but I am getting really damned tired of being so groundbreaking…

Yes! As soon as I looked over that swimsuit post, this is the body type I was hoping to see. Yet again, it was not. It never is.

Part of me says "Go, you," but the other part would like as much progress in being appreciated in clothes. Can't I be beautiful in a flannel shirt with no makeup? Guys manage it.

This. My body looks very similar as well. And while I love my body and my looks (I stare in any reflective surface I can find, ha) there's this voice in my head that says "others will never love it". And it makes me sad because I want someone to find me as beautiful as I find myself (huh, that sounds narcissistic…

Yeah? Is it also as dangerous for a white person to talk back to the police as a black person? Maybe it's just as hard for young men to be taken seriously on the job as young women?

My body looks much the same as Ms. Jolly's. I applaud her for doing this. Some days I don't want to get undressed in front of my husband (who loves my body more than I do), let alone stand naked on the streets of Brooklyn.

Can someone ban richie0 please? For fuck's sake.

You realize that those are perfectly proportional women wearing bikinis right? I love it when Jezebel acts all body positive but only show women like this and then take Lena Dunham body's and circles her imperfections like a bunch of sorority girls.

Or even those of us who have successfully lost weight but now have the loose skin to cope with. D: It will take a more confident person than I will ever be to wear a bikini with a stomach that has a smile from the skin overlapping...

I mean, I won't ask for you to be arrested, but should I have to see the word vomit that you produce? Should I have to be subjected to your internet presence? I'm just a stranger trying to have a good time...*sob*

Exactly, these are top tier chubby chicks. Not fat slobs.

Thank god, they're allowing everyone to be sexy. God forbid you just go to the damn beach to have a good time, or just, you know, swim.

Some people do all those things and are still fat. Weight is not always an indicator of someone's diet or activity level. You are misinformed. I'm sorry.
