Having an attractive face regardless of body size helps
For real
I wish I had that kind of Jawline
I love Ashley Graham
The lesson. Set your own values. Don't let them be set for you. The only distinction to be made is healthy and unhealthy.
Health is the key. As long as the weight isnt to levels where it affects health its ok.
@@adventurerwannabe and thick women are gorgeous
@@marktaylor865 that has nothing to do with what I said. All I said is health is the key.
@@adventurerwannabe the fact you took exception to it tells me you're not welcome here though.
@@marktaylor865 your not very bright are you.
I wish i was the best i could be. I don’t compare myself with other women but with what i was like 5 years ago. My best health and condition was when i was 52.
Industry standarts of beauty come from industry standarts of sewing. Plus size has a definite and very practical meaning, describing clothes not just big, but with specific proportions. And no, it is not just loose fit, plus size can be slim as well, as Mrs Graham dispalyed as a model quite often.
We do not need to redefine visions of beauty, we need to teach the young how not to be ashemed of what they are. For if not for the weight, she could have been flogging herself for gender, birthplace, income, marital status, anything else
Precisely. We'll said. This topic itself is so over played and dull. Oprah was talking about this 20 years ago. We get it! Lol
Lo pueden traducir por favor 🙏
Personally I like curvy women, a pretty face is a must yes I'm that shallow, but also intelligence is a big turn on for me and a great witty sense of humour. But back to curves, that to me is real woman, with baby tummy, that's the stretch marks left from having a child an as a man I like that and embrace it.
Love this! The words you chose, made me smile, thank you for saying that ❤️
Great ❤❤❤
Everyone who reads this, we don't know each other and probably never will but I wish you all the best in life and all the luck in the world 🥰💓🥰........
Awesome :)
Thank you Ashley Graham for promoting that we women are more than a body
Some are.
Of course they're more than a body. But is a healthier body more productive than an unhealthy one? Yes. For instance, the former won't get tired easily.
Believe in the science. Isn't that what you people say?
Size doesn’t always correlate with healthy or unhealthy. Fitness, diet and lab results are the true picture per my physician, but I’m not here to debate or prove my point…I merely commented. I’m out!
Nothing makes me happier than being thin.
Except when you have to shop at kid's section
@@feedbackzaloop I didn’t even take a Tylenol when I had the China Plague. Do you think years of good eating habits had anything to do with it?
@@giftedgreen2152 no, not really. I never came across coof myself and have zero knowlege what Tylenol is. (Ok, as I googled it, it's practically paracetamol. So yes, if you had or didn't have fever, it says jack sh*t about your nutrition)
Ashley Graham is a good example of a curvy woman. I think many people wouldn’t mind having more people like this do modelling careers. Where I think the problem lies, is with people like Tess Holiday, who are clearly morbidly obese and try to advocate that as normal and healthy.
Perhaps Tess Holiday has learned to love and value herself in the present, as opposed to the way Valerie Bertinelli chose to approach weight loss. Did she achieve her goal? Absolutely but only recently in the last year or so has she become quite candid about the restrictive, unhealthy way she attained that weight loss. I love Valerie as an artist and as a human being. I've seen her emotional testimonies on Instagram and other social media expressing her pain, disappointment and depression regarding her current weight. Yes. She gained every pound back. She's human And the program she underwent initially was set up to fail.
I've said all of that to say this. Tess may very well be living in a way that is allowing her to reach a healthier weight. It takes time and in the midst of that journey she does not owe the public any details in that regard.
I think the overwhelming majority of people couldn't care less about modelling. I buy my clothes online and can do so without having to see someone else wearing it 😁
size is a choice
Super super super thanks sir thanks
Love the video. It was a great motivator for me to do my daily workout.
Hahaha 🤣 there's the solution. They should give you a Ted X short...
1.75 seconds.
"Go to the gym and work out"
Beauty is not physical! It's how you treat others that your beauty should be scaled. Let's set our sights beyond the physical and start looking at people's personalities!
do yourself a favour and google what beauty means
@@pobox9755 do yourself a favor and expand your mind
I love Ashley!!! Beautiful inside out
Real men like curves. Only dogs chase bones
Real men do whatever they want. Only bitches feel the need to be nosy
Damn, the world is finally catching on that thick girls are much better than the twigs in the magazines.
Plus size is my obsession...
She's gorgeous... That damn jaw line is something to be envious of
Absolutely brilliant. Curvy models, not plus-sized models. Perfect.
Curvy is so much more pleasing to me ,as I am a woman who looks bony ,with saggy places now as I'm a Senior !
This is a great message. You did awesome.
She ended up using the term curvy Model so often is basically defeated the point of her idea and ended up simply exchanging one term for another one
Overweight
Good👍
I think the word you're looking for is overweight. As in, fitting the EXTREMELY well researched medical definiton of carrying enough excess bodyweight to pose a significantly raised risk of a variety of metabolic diseases.
Versus anorexia and/or bulimia?!?!?
@@cindiloowhoo1166 both are bad yes. Eat healthy and exercise enough so you can avoid both.
Funny how it's seen as a problem that there's a women's size called "plus", but "large" is somehow ok...
This is horrible. Marilyn Monroe wasn't even "curvy" she was 120lb. This isn't about beauty it's about health. And sorry to say. Health and youth are both beautiful. Stop trying to redefine words and the world just because it makes you feel sad. Ted X is a joke
I am obese at 180#. At 5'3" it's a lot but I accept the why and alter some habits to remain 180. I love me. The important people in my life love and like me just as I am.
You can be thinner if you put in the effort. Your hubby would be delighted as well
@@eeyyaakk6801 you dont know anything about her relationship. On the other hand, i doubt you're in one wither
@@sdhappyprince why do you care?
More like my type
The problem begins when by 'plus-size' morbid obesity is promoted and said as 'normal' and 'that's okay, dudes, go for it'. Just as same as beauty standards 90-60-90 make girls feel bad/ashamed/not worthy if they do not meet these criteria or there is even the least difference between their appearance and instagram model's one. Both of these spectres are damaging to society, imho.
hello everyone 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Devils were once an angel
Stop promoting laziness and the lack of discipline. Giving it a fancy name like "body positivity" does not change the real consequences.
Keep telling yourself lies that make you feel better about yourself.
It won't make any real difference in the world. Only hypocrites who don't want to be cancelled will agree with your self-assessment.
The rest of us will be willing to say what everyone knows.
That's Ashley Graham. She's done FAR more for society than you ever could
@@shadowthehedgehog181 like what? Telling people it's ok to be unhealthy?
@@eeyyaakk6801 wtf are you talking about? She's promoted exercise. Of course, telling women to feel good about themselves would be seen as 'promoting obesity" by someone who's never been near women
20 years in a career that depends on image and yet you say that your not accepted
She's a handsome woman!
It's not them that have to work on themselves, it's SOCIETY that has to stop being fatphobic.
She'd be prettier if she was thinner and that's a fact.
And she could do it, but doesn’t want to put in the effort.
yes
I actually love her curves!
You don't want her to be on top of you, that's for sure. Unless you want a sore back.
Hi hi
Super thick! ❤️
What fashion industry considers "curvy model" is actually the real normal sized American woman these days. I think most women are a size 12-14 these days. There should be more normal sized models in the industry. Skinny isn't always healthier. Normal needs to be celebrated.
Correct! Thinner isn’t alway healthier!
Just maybe 95% or so, but your close!
LOL
Must be tuff to have to put up with this being forced to be a model.
Nah.its called obesity.
More like very unhealthy....
I’m out dude. ☮️
Fake
At this point we’re just creating problems
As a people we really need to remove the stigma of she's pretty for a big girl
Men define what beauty is when it comes to women, therefore, you can’t convince men to accept what is unattractive to them. Take money for instance…..Us men can’t convince women to be attracted to poor guys and it wouldn’t do society any good to tell men to be happy and poor. How about simply not overeating and exercise?
Men don't have the exclusive say on what female beauty is. Women don't try to look beautiful just to attract mates, you might as well claim men hit the gym just to get laid.
If women were only attracted to wealthy men, children living in povery would be nonexistent. Yet here we are.
Convincing everyone to be happier with less material wealth would be the greatest service to humanity since some unnamed sapien decided to bang two rocks together.
Also cure to depression is to cheer up, cure to cancer is to get better and cure to homelessness is to get a house. Apparently.
Btw I don't agree spreading misinformation about unhealthy lifestyles. But jesus it smells like incel in here.
@@MrSamulai Couldn't have said it any better.
Some men also like men, some women also like women and some people only like themselves.
Beauty is subjective and it will always stay that way.
