50lbs More Beautiful

*repost from http://adajet.blogspot.com*

While surfing the net for some photos of Yoanna House, the only America's Next Top Model contestant I know, I chanced on a photo of a beautiful full-figured blonde with the name "Whitney Thompson" below the photo. Curious who this young lady is, I searched the web for ANTM's winners from cycle1 up to the last. Unfortunately, the last winner I saw was from ANTM's 9th cycle, Saleisha Stowers. With no chance of finding who that full-figured model was, I keyed in the name Whitney Thompson on google and voila! I got 5,130,000 results! And so I read on and found articles after another about the first ever full-figured model to win the top rating model search on TV in the US. I don't know who she is and I've never watched an episode of ANTM, but I must say Congratulations to her for telling the world that healthy people, especially ladies, are beautiful beyond doubt. I hope people will start recognizing that women with some meat in them are beautiful in every inch, just as the "bony goddesses" they worship.

I have nothing against these skinny models since I am quite skinny myself (not as skinny as they are though). But these size-zero (or less) women flaunt and strut their stuff everywhere poisoning the minds of every teenage girl into thinking that beautiful girls are anorexic girls. They brainwash these gullible teenagers into being size-zero themselves, causing them to result to anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, or both, to get that figure they dream of having. I do not put the blame on these women with pin-thin arms and 20inch waistlines since some of them are blessed with a very-cooperative metabolism, but rather on the people who create a bony and almost paper-thin image of women that is to be worshipped by men and women alike; thus creating a cancer in the society. The teenagers' desire to look like their favorite photoshoped model or celebrity, is one of the deadliest and fastest spreading diseases our society is currently facing with the growing number of larger than life billboards, magazines, commercials and TV shows --- all of which feature paperweight women that can be lifted with a finger.

And so, to wrap up this post, I say "cheers" to Whitney Thompson and to all the voluptuous women out there!
