Isabel: It is not your fault that English is not your native language, but I have understood what you are trying to convey. To view this entry as an attempt to criticize the looks of a high-fashion model is to miss the point since such criticism would be a useless endeavor. The point is to get people to think about what kind of people appreciate the looks of the likes Daria Werbowy, as shown above, to make her a top-ranked high-fashion model. These people surely have highly atypical aesthetic preferences, and their preferences are causing numerous problems. It needs to be pointed out that the fashion people involved are male homosexuals so that fewer women are convinced that attractiveness lies in skinniness and subsequently end up indulging in negative health behaviors such as unnecessary dieting to acquire the skinny look. Like you have said, some fashion models eat well and remain skinny and healthy, which appears to be your description, but others starve themselves to comply with industry requirements, and they shouldn’t have to do this. It is necessary to force the fashion industry to stop using models below the threshold of underweight unless it proves that the women involved eat adequately and are healthy. This requires that the looks of high-fashion models be addressed and other issues discussed within this site brought to the attention of the general public. The purpose of this entry is not to criticize the looks of Daria Werbowy.
