Plus Sized?

When America’s Next Top Model first aired on UPN, I tuned in. I thought it looked interesting, and it was entertaining. After what seems like 100 seasons, I don’t watch any more. But I just noticed they recently chose their first plus-sized winner, Whitney Thompson. Since I was surprised, I decided to look her up. The pictures I found do not support the term “plus-sized”. She’s a size 10! She has curves and looks like a for real woman.

I guess I just didn’t realize size 10 is plus-size now. How the times change. No wonder girls and women suffer with low self-esteem. I learned that this beautiful woman is very proud of her body and was chosen as one of MSN’ Lifestyles’ Most Influential Women of 2008. She measures 36-32-43. Besides for her confidence, I don’t know much about her inner-beauty. I am so thrilled to see a gorgeous woman with curves who commands attention and loves her body as is.
