The tyra banks show was a poor display as an outlet for SSBBW'S & BBWS awarness. Yes, their were moments were the ladies defended themselves well. The exception was the positive messages was lost with the confussion. Which was no matter what size you are. If you cant think of other alternatives outlets to express your size confidence then obvious one. Compared to other women with whatever is considered normal sizes. Of course you will be critize accordingly and have to agree their is no difference. When women who are escorts charge for particular services and women who do pornography. Again, size issues becomes irrelevant when the real issuse is...why do we have to resort to the obvious as an pyschological measure of conforming for our own reassurences. I respect all of the ladies who appeared on the show. The BBW internet model Trina. Who also does nudity videos and provocative teasing gestures. The regardless what size you are you. You reduce yourself to a sex object. The majority of women have fought to be considered for their other attractive attributes. Oprah Winfrey is a full-figured woman who fought through her own adversity becoming the person she is today. If their isnt a road of success already built in front of you to drive on. Then you create one for yourself. Society shouldnt determine the amount of what you can or cant do people.

Richardson Tue, 27 May 2008 21:57:13 +0000 http://ronaldarichardson.com/core/?p=468#comment-3184 Keyonni, your very correct. Theres tons of guys who like big women, I personally would date a big girl myself, lol. And yeah, fat does NOT mean someone is un-healthy, lazy, or un-clean. As Raqui pointed out, a big woman years ago was an excellent thing, and it still is today. I believe that a majority of men like big women, but may be ashamed of it. Healthy has nothing to do with weight; period. Keyonni keep being yourself, because you are beautiful. Don't try to be something your not, and I like that about people. I strongly believe in non-conformity, I believe fck society and be yourself, and do you. Women should have curves anyway! LOL Keyonni, your very correct.

I'm a relatively big girl (4'11" 230 lbs) and I have been big my whole life. The lightest I have weighed was about 135 lbs and this was in high school. Still the doctors told me to lose weight. I have physical deformities I was born with and seeking medical care gets lots of criticism because I am big. Anyway, my point is that I have believed for years that my weight plus my deformity would interfere in my love life. I actually got married though 3 years ago. I am divorcing him now for reasons not related. However I found another BF and I am surprised he accepted me. So I am starting to see that big women can be attractive. I'm also black btw. For the record I don't eat junk and I bathe too. I actually eat pretty healthy and still I am thick, so food really doesn't play a factor in weight gain. It is sometimes genetic too.

Maybe it is time for America to work on a different society towards those who have been damaged by it. Besides most of the people who do setup how society is supposed to look are usually homosexual. Forget what others say, a person should be allowed to do what they want without being hated on. One day society will change, until then people that are different will have to continue fighting strongly. Very well put Heather, you are exactly right.

I believe that each and every person on this earth has the right to embrace themselves and their sexuality. I mean, I'm sitting down right now typing a report on shunning and I remembered watching the Tyra Show and seeing how these beautiful plus size women were beening shunned by society because of the fact that they have excepted who they are, which is "Big & Beautiful". Being able to here Raqui and other plus size femlaes that were on the show stand up for themselves when society has shunned them, makes me realize that society is afraid to except the fact that in reality NO ONE IS PERFECT. I am not a large teenager myself, I'm rather petite, but just being able to see the power behind those women and listening to them take criticism and still be able to walk with confidence that some petite and "normal" size women can't gain, that makes me wonder...why is society shunning confidence but embracing things that should be shunned like homosexuality or having a child out of wedlock. Society has got their prospectives wrong. Hi, my name is Heather, I’m 15 years old and I wanted to comment about the whole “Fat-Sploitation” thing.

You are very right, it's society that has changed things very much in history, but we can't sit around and blame society. We have to take actions for rights, and not to be frowned upon. It's awesome to have a celebrity on my website, truly honored, once again thanks! Thanks for reading and posting a comment Raqui.

Now it is a time when anything that doesnt fit into societies made up norm is diguesting. I believe we have the human right to choose. Choose our lives. People think you must consume tons and tons of food to be a big person. My Fiance is 6 foot and 150 and we eat the same. There are times when he eats more than I do. Being on Tyra was an experience but the only way to show people that happy BIG WOMEN do exsist. That we are not sitting at home with a whoa as me attitude is to come out. Check out my site www.raqui.com - look for the tyra section link to read my feelings on the experience.
