When 20-year-old Kate Upton made her debut on the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue this year, men wanted her and women wanted to look like her. Well, except for the people at a website called Skinny Gossip. The "pro skinny" site has slammed the model for having “huge thighs, NO waist, big fat floppy boobs." Find out what else the site had to say in the video below!

"Is this what American women are 'striving' for now? The lazy, lardy look? Have we really gotten so fat in this country that Kate is the best we can aim for? Sorry, but: eww! Fashion is supposed to be aspirational—and the kind of people who aspire to look like this shop for clothes at Wal-Mart. She looks like she would work in the back of a motorcycle shop in Nashville and give [a sexual favor] for $25."

Whoa! That's pretty harsh! And a big diss to Wal-Mart! According to Gothamist, Skinny Girl responded to the outrage with the following statement: "As a thin person, I was annoyed by our double-standards around weight. For example, people think nothing of telling a thin woman—to their face, in front of an entire group of people—how skinny they are and even to suggest what they should eat." She also says she's not pro-anorexia, even though she's been posting a "Starving Tip Of The Day" for years. Do you think "Skinny" should shut up? Or is she right about Kate Upton?

The shape of her body is not exactly to my personal taste (I prefer more of an hourglass-shape), so I wouldn't want to look like her. It's true that she doesn't have much of a waist, but that's simply because she's built that way, and because her hips are narrow, NOT because she has 'excess' fat there.

Calling her 'fat' is absurd and outrageous... well, I can't even find a word to express how incredulous and horrified I am that ANYBODY could hold the opinion that Skinny Gossip holds. So far, 89 people in here have voted 'So true'... It's tragic.

Btw, I hate the fact that the word 'skinny' is replacing the word 'slim'. That change says something about the twisted ideals society as a whole is coming to, doesn't it?

The modern or Madison Avenue notion of what constitutes 'beauty' completely confounds me! I've always held that strong women ('athletic') were the hottest of the hot; that skinny women looked undernourished (warranting more sympathy than 'attention') and that beauty queens were a complete (and enormously expensive) waste of time.

Kate and all new mothers, enjoy your babies while they are so dependent upon you. Try to value this special time of closeness which will bond you together for a lifetime and help create a firm foundation for healthy self reliant individuals.
