I've met you, I don't know your medical history, but if you want me to critique you, you aren't stick thin. Stick thin to me is someone weighing under four stone in a hospital bed.

Anorexia isn't a recognised medical condition in the third world, mind you thet don't get many copies of Vogue there either, showing only images of teenage girls who are held up as the ideal of female beauty.

OMG your missing the point Rindy!!! I'm fine about my weight, my medical history is nearly none existant ( doctor phobia) MY point is labelling people. SLIM people don't deserve to be labelled as ANOREXIC just like bigger people shouldn't be labelled as PIE EATERS!!!!

am I making sense here??

No you are not. Slim is fine. I said 'stick thin anorexic' meaning the perpetuated myth that only painfully under weight women are attractive, as seen on every catwalk. There was a big story that some designers showed clothes this season on 'fat' size 12 models. That's all.

As a mother aren't you worried that the media's view of female beauty, which basically comes from a small number of homosexual men, who wouldn't know anything about real women's bodies, that some may have cellulite, wobbly bits, bony bits, spotty bits from time to time?

PM details please my g/f needs all the help she can get ...

Like I said before I was RUDELY interupted....This was about people entering a bloody fasion show in ACCY..... yes ACCY where I very much doubt KATE BLOODY Moss would show up. Happy fashion show FAT people!! and I hope you have plenty of cakes to eat afterwards.

Acceptable....?? no I didn't think so.

Slinks you've lost me.

Again appologies if you've taken offence.

Accy, Milan or New York, the priciples are the same.

Now go and eat a pie, I think your blood sugar is a bit too low and is affecting your logic.
