"well, maybe it's photoshop, or just the right camera angle", i thought. then i found her wikipedia entry.
i mean, WHERE IN THE FUCKING WORLD a size 10 is a "plus size"?? O.o |
For a model, it is I guess.
This whole thing in
SL is sad but I guess
SL will always be a reflection of RL, including these sorts of issues and disorders and people reinforcing that behavior. If it happens on the net it will be in
SL.
On a purely
SL related note, it is very difficult to make your avatar look correctly proportioned with more body fat, God the mesh sucks. My avatar is actually thinner than I want her to be because when I add more body fat the arms start to look distorted. This wasn't something I really noticed before, until I started living on an alt who wears much less.... clothing than Io, heh. Io is heavier but she doesn't run around in silks, either.
