No really. Now stop beating up on yourselves. I'm NOT a plus sized model, but do you know how many times I've been told that? I'm too short for agency representation (1 inch-- that's how the cookie crumbles, eh? Liked it when I was an Olympic horseback rider...) You're reading this, and if any of this applies to you, you know how frustrating it can seem. It's not fair, nor is it fun, to be in this very strict fashion world when almost none of us fits the mold. If you do and you're reading this, I urge you to support the models who are that little bit too short, or don't have that conventional body type.

In short, if you're reading this, this is free love smile I'll give all of you at least one reason why you really are truly beautiful, wonderful, gorgeous, sexy-- seriously.

Bravo for you Taylor! smile A little encouragement is a great thing to pass on, especially to those who may have hit with negativity about their modeling. Your port, profile and attitude says you truly are beautiful yourself, and I love the content of your profile. Thank you for your positive attitude and caring about others here at the MM.

Well...Ms. Taylor, you are truly stunning and I love your port.  I'm 31, 5'8" and on the plus-size size...and nearly 8 mos. pregnant!  However, my happy self decided to pursue maternity modeling versus trying to fit into high fashion.  yikes)

I AM plus sized for a model, but completely average for in any other part of life. And like you, an inch too short. It sucks, if I didn't love myself as I am, I don't know if I could take all the constant criticism and Denials.
