I have to try smurf on too......because plus sized mannequins don't have fat rolls. I need to see how something looks on my fat rolls

Yeah, for some reason I have the hardest time picking out clothes. I hate trying things on but I usually do. Then I'll buy 5 things, get them home and put them on again and take like 3 or 4 things back....every effing time. I just like the mannequins because it gives me idea's of how to put outfits together, like layered shirts. I know that it's not going to look the same on me.

not offended purely because some larger people find it hard to buy clothing that fits, i'd rather see them than the anorexic looking ones tbh

Well, the fact that the head is way too small is funny, but it's not offensive at all!

Plus sized people's heads don't get larger they just get fat around the face making it seem more in line with the rest of them. So should they add some roundness to the face? A couple chins? That's the reality of obesity, more fat on uour body equals more fat on your face and generally multiple chins are not all that aesthetically pleasing. II'm not trying to be facetious or cruel here just pointjng out why his head is disproportionate to his body, they didn't make his face realistic to his body.

My roll shows up when I sit down, but I think I'm starting to work on a little muffin top, DH says no though. I still coast @ ~190 no matter what I eat or do lol. Diet or exercise or eat junk food and sit on my ass for a week, nothing happens. DH forbids I lose weight and also lose ass and tit mass.  




Nah it's just an excuse. I just don't give enough of a smurf

It really looks like they just got lazy and stuck a head from a skinny one on it. Obviously they did it with the hands

Oh I know but only a small percentage of people are average sized since average is the mean of all the sizes combined (from the very small to the very large). An average mannequin would cater to only a small percentage if people and the rest would still be left with no mannequin to reflect their body type.

I've been trying to lose some weight and I'm doing well with what I eat but I HATE to exercise on purpose

Yup. Even when I was fit and lifeguarding or in the Army, I had to try on everything first because I've always been voluptuous, the flat assed and almost flat chested mannequins never got me off. Neither did the clothing made for women like that
