Even Mannequins Getting Fat
Well, of course the clothing industry is going to cave in to the fatties and feminists like all other mainstream institutions:

Quote:A clothing store in Sweden is being hailed by women around the world. It all began when two surprisingly curvy mannequins at a Swedish H&M were photographed and posted online.

More on Yahoo! Shine: Are These Plus-Size Mannequins Progressive or Just Weird?

Dressed in skimpy lingerie, the mannequins displayed softer stomachs, fuller thighs and generally more realistic(i.e. overweight) proportions than the traditional department store models. For comparison, most mannequins in the U.S. are between a svelte size 4 or 6—a departure from the average American woman who is a size 14.

So a size 4-6 is now considered too skinny? The average American woman is a 14? Unbelievable, but may be not, since the average American woman weighs in at a porcine 163-168 depending on the study. Disgusting

RE: Even Mannequins Getting Fat
Yeah I saw this too the other day on imgur when I was uploading the ostrich pics. The comments could be summarized as:
- wow those are sexy
- so glad they are putting up 'real' women now
- lol fat mannequins

I wonder how much perceived red pill is due to the internet's preference for inflationary comments.

If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

At least they still have the 'gap':

The gap has quickly become my acid test for fatty or not.

RE: Even Mannequins Getting Fat
These mannequins have been in store windows here for YEARS. This isn't new. We've had mannequins with nicer asses for quite some time. The mannequin pictured above in the purple underwear isn't what I'd call fat. I'd say she's ideal!

RE: Even Mannequins Getting Fat
In the clothing industry it's just a question of meeting demand. They're certainly not leading the charge.

RE: Even Mannequins Getting Fat
A girl with that kind of body (dark purple underwear) is what I'd consider banging on the upper end of the weight scale. Any heavier and my dick won't get hard. While I love faces, my boner is much more discriminatory against weight.

"...so I gave her an STD, and she STILL wanted to bang me."

I agree, I need a girl to have a tight body for me to consider her approach worthy. The face is secondary for me although obviously still important, but if a girl cant even take care of herself and her body i'm not going to waste my time with her.

The 'thigh gap' was mentioned earlier. It is a weird thing. I always found that hot in a chick - but I never realised I did until I read about it here on the forum about a month ago.

Strange when that happens.

RE: Even Mannequins Getting Fat
It makes sense for a mannequin to look like the customer, so that the customer can rightly judge the clothing being displayed.
