Why Aren't There Any Plus-Size Male Models?

There are

 

and sis the reason why there's more female plus size models is bc from day 1 women have been fed the idea that they have to be skinny and beautiful to be worth anything men on the other hand have never had that beauty standard, just look at movie where the ugly nerdy guys gets the hot girl, beauty standards have always affected women worse bc we have been fed toxic beauty standards since the moment we come out of the womb

Its because society doesn't really care as much about a man's weight, compared to women. We're a lot more scrutinized, if we don't fit certain beauty standards. 

 

 

Also, curvy women are not really embraced, because by default skinnier is what is considered normal. I see the attention curvy bodies get in the media, its just another thing to sexualize women with. "Real women have curves" "Men like some meat on their women" etc. Its not because they're beautiful in a pure sense, its more to do with it being sexy, which is a problem, because it promotes the objectification of women with a certain body shape.

There are, it's just that in general most people don't give a fuck about male models in the first place, and the fashion industry is primarily driven by straight women and gay men, so male models tend to be way hotter than female models.

There are. Recently, IMG Models Worldwide hired their first plus sized male model, Zach Miko.

Mreow~ he's cute ;)

 

Never really thought about it before, there should be more though. I suppose it is up to brands with what image they're going for, they choose who they hire, and maybe the bigger guys just don't get as many or as big modelling jobs.

Because straight women feel the need to look skinny and beautiful or men won't like them. Men can be fat and ugly and still get girls because "Looks isn't the most important thing in a man"

That must be why Shindong was being a hypocritical asshole when he talked about curvy girls.
