If you're a watcher of mine you've probably seen this, since it's one of my most popular deviations and has had a prominent place on my user page for a while:

As I mentioned in the artist notes, it was created as my personal response to a magazine (I think it was Marie Claire but I don't remember) allowing and even celebrating the implication that only women who are not thin are real women. Even though magazines prominently feature thin models, this sort of editorial is quite common and almost expected of them in order to prove that they are indeed in favor of "real women."
Well, I finally found an article about weight stereotyping in Glamour that also acknowledges the undue hatred directed toward thin women!
