A Positive Magazine for All Shapes: Plus Model Magazine


Plus Model Magazine

I am a fervent believer that as long as you are healthy - you are perfect and beautiful however you look.  We are all beautiful in whatever combination of shapes and sizes, colors, backgrounds, and lifestyles we choose.  It isn't anyone's place to judge or compare anyone based on any sort of standard - beauty is in the eye of the beholder...and anything can be beautiful to someone. 


I subscribe to this magazine's facebook and twitter accounts - and really enjoy and approve of their positive message about women's body image and their efforts to redefine the media's definition of "beautiful".  They are specifically aimed for the plus-size community - and it is so refreshing to see a magazine that is willing to advocate for women who don't fit into the "skinny model" body type.  While I would prefer if their message was less one-sidedly pro-plus-size, their message can be appreciated, and should be heard by everyone, nomatter what "body type category" you consider yourself in.
