As an artist I have an appreciation of all the strong dimorphic features however I am inclined to agree that the most attractive women I have met were not in the modeling category and many of the modeling looks come off far too aggressive or alien for me to ever aspire or idolize as an epitome of attractiveness.

I used to model but since I wasn’t tall or lanky enough for runway it was mostly print and promotional. It can be fun and glamorous but back in the ‘90s there was also a lot of sexual harassment, fetishizing, etc. On one shoot I was a teenager and had to pose with a much older man who was in a bathtub. I was all wetted down in a sheer dress and he was in swim trunks. It was very uncomfortable and the designer apologized to me later for that. He held onto my hips even when the camera wasn’t shooting, and he was the photographer’s boyfriend! And it’s rare to be able to make a living from that alone. I’m really glad to see more diversity now! Hopefully there’ll be more inclusion for older gals and maybe I’ll get work again❤

When I was in my teens and early 20s, I was naturally quite thin (like size 2 or 0). Back then, I thought maybe I could become a print model, due to being 5’3”. Also, I thought that being East Asian (specifically Korean) would make me standout. I even took modeling classes and briefly went to NYC for a model/talent competition. However, it ended up being a waste of money. This was also before Asian models became popular. Now that I’m in my early 40s, I have an average (size 6-8) figure. Aging definitely slows metabolism. However, I do take steps in order to slow down aging, such as skincare, eat less and exercise more, drink green tea daily, etc.. While I’m glad there’s more racial and size diversity in the modeling industry, it’s still a very competitive and challenging field to become successful in.

The average-looking women in those days didn't even entertain the THOUGHT of just trying out for that magazine - the most popular and successful men's magazine of ALL TIME!! So, yes, these young women WERE actually professional models. They WEREN'T sex workers. They were chosen by corporate enterprises to pose for EXTREMELY LIMITED POSITIONS - no pun intended. There were SO FEW ACTUALLY CHOSEN by top-level executives in the publishing/entertainment/modeling business. IG "models" are mainly "influencers" who chose THEMSELVES to pose for their own photoshopped/digitalized artistic pics. It's a great marketing strategy to tag themselves as "models." I know there are women out there who feel bad about their bodies. They (probably) compare themselves to the MOST STUNNING images on social media, or the best-looking actresses/models in the media. There's NOTHING WRONG with having high standards and comparing oneself to gorgeous women in the media!! But if any woman does that, she should compare herself to someone she resembles - NOT someone who ISN'T REALISTIC FOR HER!! If she doesn't measure up in ANY way, shape or form, she'll just feel MISERABLE, and possibly worse!! Not good!

I've noticed that for women, the "no make up" make up look + classic/smart casual clothing style is the best option: you'll less likely be infantalized, dismissed, or overlooked, and people will actually listen to you when you talk! However, if your main goal is to trigger sympathy and protectiveness in people, maybe try a more innocent look: pastel colors, florals, etc. Having a very child-like cherub face also helps a lot; people with such look do struggle more with being taken seriously though. Just my observations.

I don't know if you already adressed it but if you didn't that would be interesting if you could address how relatively speaking the modeling world is more "open" to differences for women but for men the standards diverge less apparently. For example for women there is regular model but also petite, there are also the plus size models, women can be extremely androgynous to some level where they look like young boys(not in a derogatory way), or they can be the typical highly ultra féminine while I find that men Modeling is much harsher. Even the more féminine men, and non typical male models fall unto very harsh standards, they are all extremely tall, I don't hear of any plus size male model who gaine popularity, even the features of male models seem more cemented for women I find the racial ambiguity more apparent but for men its not so much the racial ambiguity but the same feature with different skin tones. And male models seems to have kept the same look for a long time while women are more various.

Modeling is about clothes. They are tall so the clothes are more visible on them and thin so you dont check out their bodies but the clothes. So don't think you are unattractive as models are hired more on distinctive or androgynous looking faces with bodies that are not feminime usually. Many women falsely think models are the beauty standard. But most model women are a turn off for most men. The fat models is just wokeness as someone else says. They actually are more noticeable than shorter people and you definitely look more at their body shape then the clothes which a model shouldn't do. But dont be turned off it has nothing to do with what is actually attractive ....at all.

@@bambooprincess3495 I noticed you're very literal. Jaw sizes will be the set of bones, of course, but when a person drops 30 to 40 pounds (like I have) then it becomes much more prominent and appears bigger. My lips even seemed fuller. I used to have a big rectangle head, and then I went to almost an anime hero head. Same bones, but looks waaaay different. And you come from a communal point of view, "no one cares about this or that", but I am coming from the same point of view as QOVES. Jaw problems are really serious. The 21st century males tend to have a lot less jaw. And you see women still oogling 20th century men for superior bone structure. In Asia jaw is everything, it's serious business. The stuff Chinese women do with plastic surgery for their jaws is wild. Their heads end up looking way too small. You're thinking literal length when I say "arms too long." You could do an experiment. Take pictures of people of many heights, then make them the same height in photoshop and do a side by side. You'll see quite different proportional patterns. And you'll see reoccuring patterns in faces if you take their heads and do side-by-sides. I'm speaking in ratios and relativity, and from an outside point of view.
