A new survey shows that modern women will do anything in their power to achieve the stick-insect look, says Alexandra Topping.

Almost all women think that size 12 is fat, a New Woman magazine survey revealed today.

Six out of ten (stupid women -ed) also think that the size zero look - as modelled by reality-television star Nicole Richie - is attractive. This comes on the same day that Donatella Versace announced her daughter, Allegra, is receiving treatment for anorexia.

Jen (shown above) won the Channel 5 competition but was not offered a contract with Select Model Management

Jen Hunter is 5ft 11 and a size 12

She won the hearts of the British public and put size-zero models to shame with her modest curves.

But despite becoming the star of the television series Make Me A Supermodel, Jen Hunter, 24, has been forced out of her modelling contract - for being too large.

The size 12 blonde was booked by a fashion agency after impressing voters for refusing to diet when judges in the Channel Five series said she was fat.

Those above are size 12, that's hardly fat at all!

Its certainly getting that way. You are looking at a waist of around 30" at size 12 which on an average height woman, 5'6" is quite large.

If they were 5'9" then it might be ok but 5'6" is pretty small and 30 inch waist is what most men that are not at all overweight would be looking at (if they have little muscle which most women dont, so it would be fat padding it out).

I know we live in a society where its not ok to be honest if it might hurt someones feelings but if you take a man in good health and a woman in good health then the woman would not be a size 14.

Size 12 is not fat on a tall girl but there must be a fair bit of excess something to give an average height girl a 30" waist.

Katie Green (my picture example earlier in the thread) is only 5 foot 10 :confused:

Size 12 is not fat! People wonder why girls have serious issues with their weight sometimes... look no further than the dudes in this thread :/

I'm not convinced you're correct with that.

Googling around, apparently a waist to height ratio of 50% is considered healthy, so I can only conclude that all the healthy men are 5ft tall.

Or you're making things up.

A tad too fat for me size 12, or better said compared to me, size 12 is fat.

Well they're not really fat but they're way too big built for me, I'd just get squashed. I don't really like bigger built women.

So you think Kelly Brook is fat :confused: Or Katie Green :confused:

Neither of them would squash you at all, unless you're a midget! I'd even let them sit on my face!
 
Average dress size in the UK is 14-16. Obviously that will have been inflated a little by obese women but if 'fat' is taken to mean above average then size 12 definitely isn't fat.

I think that you need to look this over a bit.

A fully grown man with a 30" waist of average height 5'10 would be underweight if he was of normal build. The waist size of a BMI 25 male of average build would be around 34".

My wife weighs 7st 10lbs, is 5'1 and has a waist measurement of 27". She is not fat at all, and is a size 8 or a 10 petite depending on the cut of the clothes.

So a Woman of average height with a 30" waist is NOT FAT.:rolleyes:
 
Oh come on guys, please stop ignoring the fact that size is relative. If you had a size 8 girl who was 4 foot tall she would be fat.

Coming out with examples of size 12 models that are 5'10" plus does not change the fact that size 12 is getting chubby when you are an average height for a woman. Christ, apparently 5'10" is above average for men.

Every man in the world would bang kelly brook, that is why womens sizes are stupid.

You tell a neurotic bunch of people that size 12 is overweight and thats as far as they get. They dont wonder how tall is she, they will just think, crickey, im a size 12, I must be fat.

They don't look fat, but compared to me they are, don't get me wrong, I think Kelly Brook looks extremely hot, but she's quite large too :(.

Katie Green looks, simply put too wide/large for me from the google images I am looking at now. I mean look at this:

This is bordering fat. It's a giant.


I'm a small and light guy, as a result I'd like girls to be small and slim too.
