The average woman is a size 14 but 'plus' models start at a size six. The industry wants you to feel bad about yourself, and they succeed. I find it to be disgusting.

More quotes by Whitney Thompson
I'm here to change things so that little girls have someone to look up to. I'm here to fight the eating-disorder battle that millions of people are having and I'm standing up and saying that's not okay. Frankly, I can't fail. I will not fail.
Whitney Thompson
I think it's important to have a greater purpose behind modeling. Don't model just because you're pretty and you want to make money. Every girl wants that. You have to stand out from everyone else and on those really hard days, that is really the only thing that will keep you going.
Whitney Thompson
Plus models have personal trainers and go to college.We're not obese, or lazy, or stupid.
Whitney Thompson
I feel that people who understand the horrible things that young emaciated models go through really champion the cause of realistic standards in fashion.You only have to see one person suffering to understand how truly horrible the industry is to these girls.
