Damnit, I came here to say that...

Anyway: 'huh?!' pretty much is my opinion of them. The clothes are crap, and supermodels are probably some of the least sexy women in the public eye.

the clothes are not made to be worn by the general public *rolleyes* msot of them are jsut concept clothing and showcases of different designs the designer has come out with rarely will you see somebody in real life wearing something shown at a fashion show

Oh I know that, but even from a conceptual perspective, they don't contribute much (if anything, as far as I can tell) to contemporary street fashion. In general, I find that there is very little that's productive about the whole industry other than... hedonism.

But perhaps I'm just a Philistine... me and my plebeian practicality...

This is the last subject I would have expected to see on this site, but hey I've got a few things to say about it.

I have no interest in the fashion industry so I don't know about it's history, but from what I see of models now I can find a lot to dislike. They are far too tall and far too skinny. Just not attractive, or even realistic. They just look like giant walking skeleton freaks. And they get far too much respect for what they do. All they do is pose and walk a few feet occasionally. Their existence is for nothing other than to be something to place another person's work on. They should not be respected or idolised for that.

Straight men dont seem to understand that fashion models are not supposed to look attractive to you they are jsut hangers for the close ironically alot of straight men did find the old school pre crack/cocaine thin model attractives because they had hips,breasts and there was only a small difference between them and the average woman.


today majority of americans are obese and alot of models are overweight so there is a large difference between them and the average woman but they are not meant to be found sexually attractive to straight man and every job a woman does is not suppose to appeal to man

you sound pretty sexiest to me honestly
I understand that the point of a model isn't to look attractive to me, but I think it's stupid that they should be made to fit on the kind of body shape that just doesn't exist in normal people. And you can't deny that the fashion industry is trying to pass off these clothes as something which we should be perceiving as attractive. That's how they sell their wares. That's what I take issue with. They present these models as if they are something people should aspire to when they are pretty disgusting, in my opinion at least, and not something which I think is a healthy thing to try and achieve. The fashion industry creates this image that it is desirable to be unreasonably skinny and that is the attractive thing to be. I've known countless girls who are perfectly healthy, stylish and attractive, girls who should be proud of their own bodies, and yet believe that they are ugly and fat and will not be told otherwise. For example my ex-girlfriend and I were watching America's Next Top Model together one time and she made a comment about "the fat one" which really made me rather shocked. It made me really sad that she believed that the people on this show actually had people on it that she in all seriousness called fat. That's wrong, no matter how you look at it.

And although it's rather inconsequential to the conversation, I'm English, not American. My country does have the highest obesity rate in Europe, but it's still a long way off from America.

I like high fashion models, the ones who have interesting or unconventional facial features. I think it's wrong for the industry to more or less set standards that cause unhealthy weigh problems for the women, but I have no problem with people modeling in general.

I don't know much about the fashion industry, but it's always been my understanding that the bizarre outfits you see them wearing are meant to be an abstract inspiration or basis for a season of fashion, much like weird-looking concept cars. I find it interesting how so many people complain about these outfits/hairstyles/bodies, yet said people will tolerate and enjoy the same level of clownishness in their weeaboo crap.

When I see the emaciated figures of most supermodels nowadays, my first thought isn't "she's hot." Instead it's "get that girl a cheeseburger, pronto!"
i should have known the response i would get on a site full of nerds lol
Hey if you like 'em, then good for you. Just don't expect everyone to fall in lockstep with you just because you like something. "Different strokes for different folks" and all that.

Also, I suggest you take a closer look at my second badge. You're going to have to do better than calling me a "nerd" to ruffle my feathers.

Super models are overweight? o_O I'm pretty sure they're close to being clinically under weight.
I can't remember the last time I saw a super model and said "Damn I'd hit that" Mick Jaggers daughter is the most unattractive model ever

I'm pretty sure if I slept with some of the supermodels out there i'd break them.

Not exactly a sexy thought.

Twiglets with tits aren't my thing i'm afraid.

They're just using what God gave 'm.

I know it's looked down upon to use your beauty to make a carreer, but if I had the looks I'd do the same thing.

Anyway, I don't really feel either way about them. There are some nice looking ones though, like Doutzen Kroes.

The fashion industry itself I kind of loath though.

lol every model is not a supermodel one so how would oyu know if you saw one very few models are supermodles and seeing as they dont really televise fashion shows like they did back ni the 90s and the average american doesnt know msot supermodels by names i highly dont you know any


btw who said supermodles are overweight i said the average american women is overweight at one point in time like said before hte mndoeling industry matched the avrage size of the american women there was only like an 8% difference and even still the models were curvy and had brerasts like regular women


marilyn monroe and virtually every hollywood starlet between the 1940-60s were models and alot of them were very curvy and had hips then the crack thin look came in and every since then they been using these super skinny girls but every model doesnt look like that and i know alot of men who want to bone/sleep with the sports illustrated models, trhe vicxtoria secert swimsuit models, etc


modeling doesnt jsut pertain to the fashion industry you know lol

I think they could save a lot of money by just putting some mannequins on wheels in their place. Especially if what you're telling us is that most of these designs are never meant to leave the runway (which kind of makes the whole thing just seem like an exercise in vanity, but whatever). Also, on a sidenote:

You realise that using 'nerd' as a pejorative on a gaming website is about as ineffectual as you can get, right?

Right and portraits of people are the same, painters, sculptors and all artists really, have been wasting their time on aesthetics because unless something is practical what's the point?
That analogy doesn't really work because the clothing designer doesn't create the model, they create the clothes.
The comparison only works when you compare the model to the canvas that the painter chose, or the type of stone that the sculptor used.
How many times have you seen a painting and thought to compliment the canvas it was on?

Not really fond of lots of makeup or fancy, overcomplicated clothing. Fashion just isn't for me.

Also, most models tend to go for an extreme look, be it rail-thin or voluptuous... and that rarely comes from a healthy body. I usually find women who make workout videos more aesthetically pleasing than supermodels. The female form doesn't need accessories to look better.

Supermodels are not as attractive as they would have us believe. I think the main reason of this is because they are chosen and judged mostly by homosexual men and heterosexual women. Because of this they do not have natural attractiveness but are images of the superficial rivalry between many women.

Met a few models, they were actually decent people. Fuck, two of them were doing a fashion show near where I work and came in, they were two of the very few customers I've seen that treated the retail staff like actual human beings. I think a lot of the bitterness that surrounds them, the idea that models can't be intelligent, nice people just comes from people being upset that they're attractive. It's a weird notion you seen thrown around a lot, that good looking people never have good personalities.
what are there names :) lol you seem different than some of the guys on here alot of the men on here seem bitter towards women than again most men who have the "nerd" or "nice guy" label usually hate nad absolutely despise women
