For some reason, when I hear girls ranting about anorexic models, invariably something about "huge boobs" comes up. Woah, woah, woah. Anorexic people don't have much body fat, and boobs are made of fat. Most pictures of anorexics and models I've seen have lacked boobage. And models are supposed skinny so clothes "hang off them."
Look at some footage of a runway. Do you see massive mammaries or ribs? I've looked, and invariably I don't see cleavage.
Even the models in Victoria's Secret catalogs have relatively small breasts in comparison with, oh, say, a modest 36C. How do I know this? Because strapless bras wouldn't sit like that on anyone with a larger bust. But photoshopping has been done to make the breasts seem larger, a highlight here and there will make them "pop", but they aren't that big.
Problem is, we women are confusing "supermodel" with "porn star." Many porn stars can have low body fat and large breasts because the breasts are, um, fake.
What sticks out most about this is why would we confuse the two? Why?
