Hey, I didn't call people who wear size 0 short and fat. I don't know who's insulting who at this point.

So is this where the really smart guys hang out, hitting 'refresh' until they can insult girls? Am I too late? LB, no worries. My fem's hot, fit, and can't really wear an 8 either.

See, that's really funny because you just insulted yourself. You really must be blonde!

Sorry, can't help you. Maybe your kid has some insight.

I think being short and fat and happy would be better than being a tall skinny unhappy bitch, but I'm not sure about that so feel free to share with us what you think from your own experience.

"If a size 0 is too big for you, you need to go to Stubbs and eat some damn ribs." why, so you can be short AND fat?

FYI - I went to the casting and they are paying, but they didn't say how much.

If a size 0 is too big for you, you need to go to Stubbs and eat some damn ribs.

1) vanity sizing--welcome to women's clothing. Consistency doesn't exist here. 2) find me size 8 pants that aren't highwaters. i dare you. 3) Yes i have a booty. Not silicone. It makes jeans shopping oh-so-fun. My question is, what if a size 0 is too big for you? (how existential!)

If you buy one of those silicone bootys to pad your trunk it adds on average 2 sizes to your pants depending on how flat your pancake was in the first place. Damn you server error bitch!

5'10 @ 150lbs and bigger than a size 8? I'm not buying it.

What do you know? I'm 5'10" and 150 pounds too. So is my child. He's in 3rd grade. Kids sure grow up fast these days.

Yes, at 5'10" and 150 pounds i am indeed obese. And, alas, nowhere near a size 8. I should be ashamed, and banned from all grocery stores and restaurants. Thank you, PDM, for awakening me from my slumber.

annie1267: yes, it is a shame that so many women (and men) these days don't take care of themselves (read: are fat).

Exposure = Pay. Huh? If they're paying, they're doing a hell of a job of hiding it. And just what does it take to be "great in this situation?" Bluejar, I'd suggest you get some pics taken for stock photography some time. You'll get paid $50 and you'll be exposed EVERYWHERE - hemorrhoid creme, toilet paper, NAMBLA brochures, etc.

HAHA seeking real women sizes 2-8 only ...

actually i would think that exposure does almost equal some pay; besides it sounds like it is supposed to be fun, real and non-obtrusive. i guess i am defending it because i know a lot of young women that would be great in this situation and ranting before you know the facts is a bit unfair.

This shoot is complete bullshit. Lucky magazine/The Witty Pioneers should be paying people for the use of their images. If they were legit, they'd be using real talent agents and paying people the going rate (~ $1k - $6k, depending on amount of exposure). Of course plenty of desperate women (I never cease to be amazed at what women will do for attention - especially when a camera is trained on them) will volunteer. This is akin to crossing a picket line. Scabs... If there is legitimate pay involved, I apologize for this rant. BTW: I work for a talent agent.

Are they taking ladies who haven't yet finished horomone replacement therapy?
