As a skinny person and I know this is going to get a lot of backs up but I'm going to say it anyway I'm sick of the acceptance of people getting grossly fat in this country and yes what's the average size is increasing but it shouldn't be used as a benchmark for what people's weight should be. I think it's ridiculous that they do 48GG bras in M&S and they are proud of it. No, that's a ridiculously large size and by putting it in the mainstream makes it acceptable somehow. When you reach the point that you're too big to buy clothes it should ring some ****ing bells that maybe you're ridiculously overweight, not highstreet stores justifying you by making ridiculously sized clothes.

That rant aside I saw nothing wrong with that picture. It didn't even register that it was 'ribby', in fact I can't see any ribs in that picture. If you want to see ribs then lift my shirt up because I have ribs and I'm bloody well proud of them.

For the most part women who feel they look rubbish DO look rubbish because they are fat and lazy and sit around in the office eating biscuits and sweets all day and don't actually want to do anything about it. I see it every day of the week in my own office. They are quite happy to sit there moaning about it and how they are being undermined by images like that rather than do something about it. I'm sure many of them looked like that when they were 18/19/20 but the ravages of laziness, lack of exercise, pies, cakes and letting themselves go in front of their other halfs got the better of them.

I'm not one to speak because I've put on 1/2 stone from sitting in the office doing the same but I'm not going to try and come up with excuses, it's my own laziness.

There are many reasons why things need to be shoved

It's in an Ann Summers catalogue. Of course you're meant to shove it somewhere

Because when you have images like that and adverts saying you should watch what you eat, look like this, if you don't look like this that you aren't sexy, after god knows how many years it sinks it.

Also I have had many people me insensitive to me because of my weight, which has just made the whole problem ten times worse.

It isn't easy to ignore all of that, just isn't

Forgive me for my attitude, but why shouldn't you watch what you eat? I am not saying you are, but it just ISNT acceptable to be a fat mess. Why should people say it is and start putting heffers on the front of magazines to appease people that can't be arsed to lose weight?

I'm not saying "larger" women cant be sexy, but for the love of sweet baby Moses on stilts, lets just call a spade a spade.
