Hmmm… the big models are objecting to the term “plus-sized.”  They say it stigmatizes them. Huh?  They were willing to stigmatize the size 0 models by calling them Barbies… anorexic… usw.  - - Let’s see… if you are 64 inches tall and wearing a size 14 or larger, then you have you have a health problem… risk… associated with your weight. You can get your “physique” relabeled… but, it won’t make your heart risk go away. You want the advertising industry to stroke your self-esteem so that you can justify your lack of self-discipline? Being slender and healthy requires you to be in control of that which does not go into your mouth… and thus, not onto your hips and belly. - - Okay… I get it. So let’s not have any term at all… for any of the models… just numbers 00-4, 4-10, 11-14, 15-20, 21-31, 32-42, 43-53… usw.
