    What say you?

    For those not aware, there's some belly-aching in New York that there aren't enough colored girls walking down the runway.

    I should've clarified what a runway was for you guys who don't know. It's a long deck models walk down.

    Oh yeah. Shit Zoolander, the colored girls in the US aren't bulimic freaks. They love their........... (avoiding any food stereotypes that get pro golfers in trouble)....... food. :)

    Really. The discrimination is against women with curves.

    FIFY.

    When my wife showed her first line at New York Fashion week she made a point to use models who were all size 6-10, the size of real women that are not obese.

    She got bombed in the industry circles. Buyers liked it because they got a real sense of how the clothes looked on real women.

    Did that hurt her career any? The whole goal is the sell your line, so I take it that was her primary concern, not how her peers felt. Still, there are some who would pick being accepted by their peers over how well their line does. Kudos to Mrs Supa for choosing the latter.

    Boys you wont believe this but in my lean, mean sex machine days I used to date (ahem) an English girl who was an English model in Tokyo. She really jetted around. She was not everyday size, much closer to sticks and bumps. But was incredibly fine. Don't knock the sticks and bumps crowd until you have tried them. I am growing light headed just typing this. OMG, how could I have messed that up!
