'Skinny' Website Calls Kate Upton Fat: So True or So Wrong?

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?

    Yeah I know, not trying to offend anyone. I tried to find a picture that a site used in an article about plus size people so it wouldn't look like I just found some random photo of a woman and put it up there. And I was going by the definition (having too much flabby tissue) not how people use it in a mean way. P.S.The truth hurts, we grow from it.

    technically, she is considered - "morbididly obese"

    Just plain ol "fat" is really considered between 10-100 or so lbs of BMI

    Or so I'm told!

    Honestly, everything pro skinny said about that picture is kind of true (except for the huge thighs part, I don't understand that). But she is in no way fat! She is still good looking in my opinion.

    They don't even have the slightest idea of what "fat" is. I think they are looking for some attention. Whatever.

    She's what they call "skinny fat". She doesn't look like a whale but she's flabby and not tight, no muscle tone. Just skinny and flabby.

    Dictionary.com...

    flabby: adj. 1. hanging loosely or limply, as flesh or muscles; flaccid.

    Where exactly is the flesh "hanging loosely or limply" in those pictures?

    Unless you mean those genetically gifted natural mammary glands popping out of her chest. There's a lot of guys who kinda like them like that, you know?

    Is this website for real? She's FINE the way she is (pun intended). Doesn't need to change a thing, she's already hotter than 9/10 of the hot chicks out there.

    Ya its for real ...sad thing is I used to be a member. It ruined my life. 'Skinny gossip' tells you that she's your friend and doesn't encourage anorexia but a healthy body image. Most of the girls on the site are less than 100 pounds and still want to be thinner. Its so sad. Thanks to her I've been to 3 physchologists and I'm still not fully cured. I hope she dies a lonely bitter woman because that's all she deserves.

    Only women who are self-conscious about their flat chests from being mistaken for little boys too often would say that about a decent rack.

    Wow, that...was interesting to hear. I'm not a supporter of anorexia but I can't possibly contest what you just said. You know what you want and respect others for having their own images. I...huh.

    1-''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. '' Actually, gay men didn't want her, and lesbian women wanted her. In fact, none of this is correct, because even among straight/bi people, tastes vary. Plus asexuals. NEVER FORGET NOT EVERYBODY IS STRAIGHT!!!

    2-Well, I have a message for skinnygossip.anorexia.com: SHUT THE **** UP!!!
