It is not about Banning skinny people, it is about trying to save the lives of young girls who are starving themselves for the sake of fashion

If you're going to ban "skinny" people you darn well better ban the fat people. I don't want to see that, no one wants to see that.

It is not only the media and designers that have brought this sad situation about, it is also the general public. To me there is little difference between skinny girls who aren't looking after their bodies and denying their health and those at the other end of the scale who are obese, neither really cares for themselves nor posesses personal pride. Bring back the days of Marilyn Munroes and the like where a womens figure was allowed to be full (but not fat) and curvaceous and maybe there will be a change in public attititude. This is the responsibility of the designers, they initiate the market trends for the masses (lets be fair no-one with any decorum wears some of the freak stuff from the catwalk in real life) and they too can sway the "way" women look and what is acceptable, maybe its just a power thing to be able to make someone want to starve themselves to death just to get a job modelling....very sad !!!!

In general the whole story seems a nonsense. What else will men invent to escape from normal relationship?There's just one positive thing for me: these men are not afraid to express their opinion, they're not afraid of being laughed away. They have their feelings and don't want to hide them. People often play roles in ordinary life, we don't even think about it. But in reality, everyone has a role which sometimes can be worse than being a transsexual lesbian. Everyone has a mask which causes many complexes in fact. So the main thing is to remain natural and to feel harmonious.

Happiness Might Appear Before Fortunate Events Occur, Study Says

Our inherent inclination to adapt does play a significant role in our subjective feeling of happiness.I believe the conditioning ones mind since childhood with an inclination to think positively does help.Parents take the hint.
