model talk

so i had a chat with natrisha yesterday about her recent entry.
so here is the thing that i havent quite settle in my mind. The whole thing about modelling. so here is the thing. i like many others hopefully always believe in elitism. not that i like the fact certain people should be put aside for being special. but the thing about modelling which i love the elitism is skinny girls are models.
All this talks about Ms Plus Sized model hopefully one day to walk the runway is scaring me definitely. I can imagine the day i buy vogue or harpers bazaar to see some piece of lard staring back at me. not hating the bigger people but imagine. the thing about this skinny girls is its showing the ideal look of fashion. and if all this pro-fat for a lack of better word start showing their enthuathism to the disagreement of this skinny models you will then see normal people walking runway. Then why the use of a runway show or model. u can practically do it on the streets u see people all of sizes wear clothes. true?
Due to this phenomenon, thus just looking at singapore i see the increase of Models. This further make me disgust this term as it brings off its elitism of modelling. if every mary, jane, ah mei, timah and devi start calling themselves models where does models place themselves in the modelling world? isnt it gruesome enough to fight against the skinny bitches in the world but to see all this big creature claiming their supposed space in fashion. than thats where there is a huge turnover in the runway.
we probably need a much stronger runway if we see this kind of people walking.
In singapore just search lemme say friendster. the online community of asian people.
well i can easily find a girl on my own friends list and i certainly have those people in my head while i type this entry. so as i was saying this girls u can easily find one that is claiming themselves as models. who poses and do model 101. bend right knee. hand on right knee one and the other on the hips. and then we hear comments wah hot sia you and something like that.
How common is that? even this girls who has one line of eyebrow. and yes i do mean the typical minah and ahlian..i dun even wish to start on them. a disgust. And like many wannabes model nowadays. I got a few guide rules.
1) go to the mirror.
2) look at ur face close
3) stop saying and telling urself how Fu*king gorgeous u are
4) or how skinny u are
5) and then remove all those powder on ur face. and now look at urself
then create a checklist that includes
1) am i tall? ((VERY VERY VERY IMPT))
2) am i chubby?
3) do i have nice sharp angular bones?
4) do i have thunder thighs?
5) can i walk in high heels. and 3inches DONT EVER TELL ME ITS HIGH! i'll scream at u
6) and if everything seems right than start taking shots that work.
7) not in ur room by the window by the mirror or watsoever.
simply aint it? and if many guys tell u that u are hot. screw it. they say that to every person. guys who have brains and taste like me will only praise girls that deserve it. (which does not make me gay.emphasis on the not) else if everybody tell u that. they are telling u cos u are probably wearing something or not wearing something that cover a part which attracts them.
simple enough.
i hope this help. else feel free to tag and ask ur questions. i will happily give my views.
no im no fashion student or wat not. i just knw what i am talking about enough. dont agree. too bad. wat i say always works u knw.
haha. self-obsession.
