I think she still looks good with some little junk in her trunk. And those curves too mmm yes... biggrin

I wished that men be judge more harshly for their appearance because some of the same ones who raised their bar about women standard of beauty and dissed women about their looks doesn't look too fine themselves. But I am glad that I am hearing about more men getting under the knife because that means more pressure for them to attract the ladies who won't lower their beauty standard on men.

Tyra pay her dues so you go girl trying to talk some sense to those men who likes boney anorexia girls.


When women stop getting with men for money and power reasons then it will begin to matter what they look like nod


Those men, hon, or those women??

I hate people are saying she's fat,when she's not

She has a nice body. As long as she's healthy,thats all that matters.


If theres nothing wrong would being fat, why would that make you angry?

Ive gotten the impression since her show started that shes trying to appeal to her audience which demographics show are typically females who are home during the day. She wants to come across as "one of them". This means that she wants to shed her glamorous supermodel image and be (for lack of a better term) more "fumpy" so that her audience accepts her more. It seems to be working because her show hasnt been canceled yet. Remember when Oprah lost alot of weight after being fat for years, her ratings dropped because her target audience said, Who does she THINK she is!" Tyra knows what shes doing. She gains weight, she seems like a homegirl that her audience can relate to, her ratings are up, she wins. Thats the formula people.

Omg, she didn't gain weight for ratings. rolleyes

She gained weight because she loves to eat and probably doesn't work out anymore (or at least like she probably used to). She can do whatever the hell she wants with her body.

Women biggrin The reason it's not so important for men to look as good as men want women to look is because those slovenly disgusting cretans can get hot chicks by virtue of the fact that they have power or wealth....or something else that's huge lol When women stopped putting a premium on those things, they too can manipulate men into staying fit lol this isn't, of course, all women but enough out there make it possible for it not to matter as much what a man looks like.

I think a side affect of women's attaining prominent positions in the job sector will lead to men needing to posses other attributes than a good job to attract a woman.

It'll be an unintended consiquence of badly needed equality.

You got that right! I am love seeing it how now that some men had to work harder to get that pretty miz thang they wanted. Having a good job and position isn't enough.

I don't think Tyra is fat at all--sure she's not "super model" thin, but she's not gone.

But I've always been perplex at how much fat and larger women hate thin women. I mean, men love guys who are in great shape and really good looking. Becuase they're all gay and decreases the competition. shrug

Wow I hated to say it but I totally agreed!! While my friends likes thugs (bad boys), players, and ballers I like the pretty boys! I don't care what job he does as long as he is working and independant! I want my men to fitted and attracts me. But I know what you mean Supa because my friends hate pretty boys.

I be seeing the uglist dudes with the hottest girls, and that would NOT happen have the situation been vice versa. I am like "WTF? Still whatever makes their boat float" See Flavor Flav. lol Still even my moms said the same thing about back in the days where she come from most girls wouldn't even look at slovenly guys but now even she admitted that time have change.

lol Yeah, I do think that this is a true phenomenon. Some larger women are extremely jealous of thinner women, hence the whole "fat acceptance movement" and the "skinny women are evil" tagline.

It's amazing what a phat wallet will do when you're an ugly guy. Look at ugly mfers like Mick Jagger, Howard Stern, Donald Trump, Steven Tyler, Russell Simmons & David Spade. You think those cats would be getting A-list chicks if they were average guys? Hell no. You don't even have to be famous - I see fat, dumpy Wall Street types driving around NYC with hot chicks all the time.

As for women with curves, ain't nothing wrong with that(long as the belly's in good shape).

I think character or talent also plays into the appeal (except in Donald Trump's case)

Oh shit I am watching Tyra right now and it show a preview about her said something like, They (the media) said this about me now listen to what I have to say.' She is going to address on the show next Thursday about what the media been saying about her weight.

I am going to watch it and it comes on February 1st so check your listings! She looked very emotional and somewhat angry and the audience was in tears.

Get your Tivo ready if you can't watch it live!! This show you dont want to missed.
