The problem with women's sizing is much like their bras, women tend to pick the wrong fits.

Height also has a big play in things, a size 6 on a 4'6" chick is a bit different than a 5'8" chick. Most past size 6 or so I see crammed into a garment about 2-3 sizes too small.

Would anyone even be able to have sex with that? It's such a huge turn off. I can't imagine women wanting to see that either. Who is this fashion show for, exactly? Necrophiliacs?
How is she even standing on her own? :eek:

I could be wrong, but I think he was referring to the wife and girlfriend part. Just a hunch.

I said wait what because 5 is not a size, 00, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 etc are female sizes. I see a pattern. I'm not calling him a liar but she surely isn't a size 5.

They make half sizes. My wife had several size 11 pants at one point.

Most, close to all, women cannot wear clothes that small, anorexic size, so I don't understand how that is selling more clothes...

less material needed to cover her, so cheaper.
i think they're using gold threads, and you know how expensive gold is now.

don't like chubby, but dislike boney even more.

Of course they do. The fashion "industry" is concerned about making the clothing look good. Whether the model looks good or not (to them) is defined by whether she can make their latest line look good.

If straight men gave enough of a shit to own the fashion industry there'd be no need for playboy. Every make-up/skin product add would be "modeled" by a hot naked (or close to naked) chick to show it's "overall intensification of beauty" or some shit. Said woman would probably be "less thin" than the model in the OP; and the model in the OP is hot.

Things like Playboy and Bang Bros are the straight male version of the fashion industry. Take the styles developed by gay men and apply them to women who are already cute.

In this one we see the lovely Shawna Lenee showing off her new hair style and a nice black and white checker pattern bikini. Very stylish.

They make double-zero for a reason, women should understand that and stop being such fat asses.

Seriously though: Who cares what the size is, as long as they look good and healthy.

Btw, whoever that little girl in the picture is, her parents nee to be shot.
