packaging babes

Can we fuck­ing stop al­ready with plus sized models? 

Why can’t all mod­els just be called   mod­els   ?

At best,
plus size cap­i­tal­izes off the out­rage of women at im­pos­si­ble beau­ty stan­dards – ba­si­cal­ly mak­ing mon­ey off the psy­cho­log­i­cal dam­age the mod­el­ing in­dus­try has caused – 

At worst,
it con­tin­ues to per­pet­u­ate the idea that these women are still some­how not a nor­mal size,

                  they are different,
                  they are plus,
                  and there­fore go into a dif­fer­ent category
                  (imag­ine me hard eye­rolling at all of this).
 

Look, mar­ket­ing jerks,
all we re­al­ly need from mod­els is for them to be babes and babes come in a va­ri­ety of packaging:
                  Ash­ley Gra­ham is a babe.
                  Kate Up­ton is a babe.
                  Geena Ro­cero is a babe.

I en­joy look­ing at all of these women, 

you don’t have to put them in
                  sep­a­rate categories,

just keep it di­verse so we can all be rep­re­sent­ed and con­nect with your brand. 

It’s not fuck­ing rock­et science.
