OK...on my own personal website's blog, I wrote this back on 09/27/2007.

 Attn: Advertising Companies Today's gripe....I am a full figured gal, and here's what pisses me off. I get a few magazines every month for "Women." So of course I get bored and flip through them. What drives me nuts is that the models they use to pose in the "Women's" clothing, are all skinny bitches!! Yes, they are big boned, but none of them have a single womanly curve on their body. I'd much rather they follow in the steps of the Dove advertisements and get real women with actual curves to their figure, so that I can see how that blouse or those pants will fit a differently shaped body.

Same thing with Bras...don't try and sell me a bra for a full figured woman who has no back fat or excess meat on her sides!!....they basically take more skinny bitches with nicely enhanced boobs, sitting perfectly perky in front of them, strap them in and say, "see, this is what you will look like in this brazier."

No, I don't!

Gimme some woman with real bodies to sell me your clothing, so I can see how it really fits!!

 So that was in September....my rant now continues....

Have you ever noticed that the "Women's Department," in most major retail stores is located right next to the Petite Department?!  Like we don't feel bad enough about our selves....please, place us directly next to the skinniest of all the bitches.  Let us gaze to the other side of the fence to the pasture that, with a Lap Band inserted, a personal trainer, Weight Watchers working in conjunction with Jenny Craig, and a pad lock for our refrigerators, will NEVER BE!  No matter how much we "Big boned" women try, we are never gonna cross that line into Petite!

Instead they let us shop directly adjacent to them, which, let's face it ladies, just makes us look even bigger....then to make things worse, as you get turned around by all the wracks, you suddenly find yourself holding up a shirt, saying...that's a large?  That's so small...then you notice where you are standing and try to stealthly slink away back to your own pasture.....certain all the skinny retail sales ladies are watching you and snickering under their breath.

 Knock it off Penny's and Kohl's.....be kind to the plus size girls....we are customers too.  :O)~

I'm going to get a cookie now......
