Is Ashley Graham *Really* the 'New Sexy' Today?

Okay, let's not be haters. That is a deeply unflattering angle.
And I would never have chosen that "thong" swimsuit for her body type.
That said, she's pretty. She is not built for high fashion. But she does have the kind of figure that a lot of straight men might enjoy.

Curvy, plus-size women need flattering clothes. Or they need to look fabulous naked.
Your can't just put them in a shoelace and expect them to look their best.

When she's stuffed into an undersized thong, yes, R7.
Plus-size women need to find what is flattering to them. (The MSM will not do it for them.) There are other swimsuits I would have chosen for her, FWIW.
This is an awfully heterosexist thread. I would love to hear our Lesbian Sisters weigh in (no pun) on all of this.

Great face, amazing rack, full, but nice hips, and for guys who like some meat, her ass looks good in clothes. Her naked ass and legs are the weak part. She's really thick, but also somewhat fat in that area - as in some folds, a little cellulite. If she was that thick, but completely smooth (as she often is in photo shoots because of airbrushing), then she'd truly be smoking hot (again, if that's your thing). Her stomach is fairly flat given her size. I think she's fairly good looking.

This whole body positivity movement was originally started by female cancer patients with breast surgery scars, people with burns and missing limbs etc. pushing for more public presence in order to remove the stigma from themselves.
But obese people just had to hijack it and make it all about themselves and normalizing their food addictions.

No offense but none of you should even bother trying to understand what's attractive on women. Gay men have given us the "the hottest women are horse faced or have the body of a teenage boy and should be our models". It's like an anorexic trying to be a chef.
I do agree the body positive shit has gone too far. There's ugly, sloppy, and obese, and that's not healthy or attractive to the majority of people.
However Graham is curvy and looks much better in most pics, and people who like tits, ass, hips, etc... (aka not gay men) know she's fine.

R31 makes a good point as I don't think they're the arbiter on what straight men find sexually attractive in women. Cellulite is what's in those pictures and cellulite is something 99.9 percent of women get no matter their size. The thinnest women have cellulite and the angle and the lighting of the photos mean everything.
If you're standing in sunlight the cellulite will be very pronounced versus some indoor lighting. So yes the Op's photo is unflattering but if you bend over the skin will smooth over so no issues for most straight men who like voluptuous women.
I wouldn't say she's the new sexy. Just that she would probably have no problems attracting men especially as she has a pretty face.

"Why do women get cellulite more than men? The [structure of] collagen, the main protein of connective tissue, in women has the appearance of a picket fence, whereas in men it looks more liked a cross-linked fence. So you can see the cross-linked structure is much stronger [and will hold fat in better].
Another reason women get cellulite has to do with the [two kinds of] adrenergic receptors. When stimulated, alpha receptors will cause fat cells to produce fat [as well as triggering constriction of blood vessels and release of sugar into the bloostream] when beta receptors are stimulated, they break down fat [as well as increasing heart rate and relaxing blood vessels]. In women, for every one beta receptor in the thigh, there are nine alpha receptors.
Estrogen also makes fat whereas testosterone breaks down fat. So a women's body is basically—and I hate to say it—genetically designed to be a place for cellulite to develop. Men have one layer of fat throughout their entire body and a one-to-one alpha- and beta-receptor ratio".

Somehow I doubt men's trash mags Maxim and FHM are featuring Ashley Graham out of charity towards fat chicks.
There's straight men who like super thin, slim, average, curvy, voluptuous, and obese women. There's a bell curve of how many men find each of those most attractive (in other words, fewer find super thin or obese women hot). Ashley falls between curvy and voluptuous and would appeal to a large # of straight men.
I suppose women could have voted in this poll from ESPN, but that site skews heavily male, and Ashley wins the "hottest" poll against a smaller chick easily.

I've never had a problem with cellulite. Although Ashley has a lot of positive and beautiful physical attributes it bothers me that she's essentially communicating that it's OK for young women to not go to the gym.
Go to Germany and Scandinavia. You'll see tall, beautiful large sized women who constantly exercise. They have proportionately much larger bones than the average Asian woman. That's who should be promoting the "new sexy." Many are curvy and busty as well. They do not look right in most fashions designed for tall, thin women even if it was large enough to fit them properly.

R91 I believe there was a study that mentioned women often feel more depressed when skimming through magazines and seeing plus sized models. Perhaps seeing these bigger models makes them realize "Oh. So this is what I look like. It doesn't look as good as say, Dari Werbowy or Carmen Kass. SHIT!". When women look through magazines or watch fashion shows, seeing thin women gives them something to idealize.

I'm sure. There's plenty of women who claim they are "curvy" but are really fat or obese. Those women don't look anything like Graham, they have box hips, a fat belly, etc.. Curvy means you have a good ratio of boobs/hips/thighs to stomach and it's rare to maintain it as you gain weight. Personally, I can't gain weight like Graham because when I do it goes to my belly or arms. I have to stay at a low or low-normal bmi.
But half the DL posters are in as much denial as the "curvy" fat women. Ashley Graham is hot, has a great shape, and if you hung out with actual straight men, you'd realize she's as likely or likelier to make them pop a boner as a regular model.

I showed her pic to three of them (age range 32 to 46) today. The question: "If you met this chick, would you fuck her?" The answers can be summed up like this: The viewer actually pauses for five to eight seconds. "Hell YEAH, I'd would. She's hot. I don't normally go for bigger girls, but her face is great, great tits. She's definitely sexy even though she's a big woman."
Other side comments included comparisons of her face to either JLo or Eva Mendez.

I had a friend who had the same body shape, she was even bigger. This was in the eighties. She had no trouble finding men. She had a different man in her bed twice a week. Almost all of them were hot. Then she met an Austrian, went on the Scarsdale diet, got slim but still voluptuous, moved to Vienna, and has been with him, happily, since.

Ms. Graham will never be as nice to look at as this woman. Plus size women would be judged far less if they stuck with potato sacks and didn't try to dress like models that actually look good in clothes. Just like Muscle Marys would be judged far less if they dropped the masc-bro facade.

It just speaks to the state of society. Our culture. They give this woman (Ashley Graham) max publicity. No one really squawks because she reflects the sordid state of affairs regarding increasing weight among you, middle-aged people.
I tend to agree with r124, Ashley Graham could do herself a favor and cover up.
Seeing bags of cellulite all over her legs, no evidence of musculature in sight anywhere, and seeing how she stoops when she walks, suggests she leads a fairly sedentary lifestyle. She's more a cautionary tale for what not to look like - if you can at all help it.

Nothing but nothing ages a face more than too much weight. Yes, a face with a little more flesh may look more youthful but before you know it that gets out of hand and that trick doesn't work anymore.

R115, The fashion industry has always shifted back and forth between the ultra thin waifs like Kate Moss as the Ideal to the more voluptuous Russian and European models like Paulina Porizkova. Then the waifs were all getting breast implants and fashion trends shifted to heroin chic.
Ashley Graham is just an alternative to either trend. Or the next step in the progression of the Big Beautiful Plus Sized models who were Size 12 and over like Emme. Still tall with very pretty faces and beautiful hair they were voluptuous but super healthy looking. Of course exercise was part of their lifestyle.

She's weirdly obese. The upper half doesn't match the lower half. With that big, cellulite ridden bottom, you'd think she'd have a sloppy gunt, but she doesn't. And, her breast, arms, face are great. Because she's has such full breasts and fairly broad shoulders and isn't pear shaped, she can look really good in clothes as a thick woman. But, again, I had no idea how much they have been photoshopping her bottom half.

I would guess she's more than 200 pounds. Definitely obese. She is lucky to have a very pretty face and to carry most of her fat on her lower body. If she had the more typical apple shape then no one would like twice at her, either for modelling or general attractiveness. Thats not even consideringthe massive health risks associated with fat in the andominal area. This is what fat activists often overlook. Most fat women aren't 'curvy' or 'voluptuous', they're just fat. I'm a woman who does struggle with her weight and I don't consider Ashley a role model in any way. It's great that she feels confident in her body but that doesn't reflect reality for most women.

Well said, r160. I had previously pegged Graham at 200 pounds. But as I typed I knew that guess was likely way off as well.
She might be 240 - in that range.
I copied/pasted a chart from the American Cancer Society website.
This table shows us that a woman who is 5 ft. 4 in. tall is considered overweight (BMI is 25 to 29) if she weighs between 145 and 169 pounds. She is considered obese (BMI is 30 or more) if she weighs 174 pounds or more.
A man who is 5 ft. 10 in. tall is considered overweight (BMI is 25 to 29) if he weighs between 174 and 202 pounds, and is obese (BMI is 30 or more) if he weighs 209 pounds or more.
Based on this: I'd say Ashley Graham is safely within the Obese category.

What is odd to me is that she has very little fat on her face and neck. Her collarbones are visible, which is supposed to indicate normal weight then she just gets progressively bigger. Interesting. I wonder if she'll decide to lose weight and shape up as she gets older. I would imagine there would be a fair amount of money in it for her if she could do that successfully.

While we're on the point, the majority of straight women in their twenties, many even into their thirties, do care what men think of their physical appearance. Sad but true. They know straight men are constantly judging them. I didn't make that point, but it is reality.

R153 Of course most every woman have cellulite. If you're a woman then you can't see what your behind looks like in stark sunlight so you're clueless about it but it's there.
"Brace yourself—if you have cellulite, you are one of hundreds of millions of women in the U.S. who’s cursing her luck on that front. “The majority of women have some form of cellulite on their body,” says Dr. Lucas. “From what I’ve seen, it’s 80 to 98 percent of women.”
Although men experience cellulite much less frequently, at least 10 percent of them have it, too. “Men have fibrous bands that run more parallel with the skin surface,” says Lisa Donofrio, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist and Associate Clinical Professor at the Yale University School of Medicine. “Women have bands that run perpendicular, thus causing the telltale dimpling.”

She's called Freja Beha Erichsen, r176, and is most definitely a lesbian. I think one thing people forget about models is that they're actually huge. They may be skinny but they are so fucking tall, for women, they are physically incredibly imposing.
Freja is 5' 10", Ashley is 5' 9". I can't imagine what it might be like to have Ashley's physical presence in front of you because not only is she fat she's also very tall. She's actually not bad on the runway, but you don't really get a sense of the clothes on her, as you do with the skinny models, which is why she doesn't walk much.
Ashley walked the Michael Kors Fall/Winter 17 show last month, she was good (better than the "model" who came after her). You can see her at about 0:40 seconds into the linked video. My favourite model was the second one to walk out. The difference between a big girl like Ashley and the other girls is palpable.
Basically, from my lesbian perspective, Ashley does nothing for me but some of the other models I find stunning.

The most attractive men and women are neither fat nor underweight; they're healthy looking people who are in good shape. Look at models from the nineties, who were so stunning that even I as a young gayling could appreciate their beauty. Ever since that ugly Kate Moss was discovered, fashion went down the drain.
