ShayCristoforo 10,227 Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 It's becoming evident that a lot of people really just don't get the intention of the post, of a forum, or how to be a critical thinker. I'm pretty surprised. Feeling kinda sorry for Gaga that these are her people lol This potential missed opportunity was my observation. And I think it's a bonafide one. We are a community of "Little Monsters". In that language, the monster aspect kinda demonstrates and unifies us as different. So that's been a major theme of Gaga's, and the theme of this discussion. DIFFERENCES. And where to stand up and push for more, even when it's not traditionally required. Goodbye Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.

Stop with the ridiculous false equivalency. I being a naturally skinny person, who has been bullied for it my entire life, am offended by your gross statement.

See, that’s the thing about you guys, you need to put someone down to uplift someone else. Why couldn’t you just say that we need more plus sized representation? Why did you have to imply that those models are unhealthy? It’s disrespectful and rude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we treated the LGBT+ community that way you can't even imagine the consequences GGD being extra disappointing these days. Wtf is wrong with y'all. Ok... so you think that everyone should put LGBT people in every commercial, movie etc. ?? But what is the reason? If someone want it... I am ok with that... just do it!

Kulture Kiari 3,433 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 It's literally makeup. People don't usually wear makeup on their body. Now if it were a clothing line, it be different. Stop trying to find something bad for everything Gaga does. She is a pop star after all, not someone who has magical powers to save humanity from what's fair or unfair. Next thing you know, she will go back to trying to release her pet products line, and there might be 99 people in the room enjoying the pet products, but only one will say "Wow. I feel offended. I've been a Gaga fan since I was 3, and no human was shown in the ad. Only pets. Isn't she all about equality?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have just list another problem with the ad that no one would have noticed if you weren't trying so damn hard to defend it. I never said they were the same thing.

Why couldn’t you just say that we need more plus sized representation? Why did you have to imply that those models are unhealthy? It’s disrespectful and rude. So did you skip posts where it’s said “fat people shouldn’t be shown because it promotes unhealthy lifestyle”, “everyone is born skinny”, “some say it’s a disease”, “showing fat people is not profitable” etc? You are naturally skinny, good for you (you also have representation in beauty ads), but many are struggling to achieve that and seeing only one body type in all beauty commercials all the time is not very encouraging. It’s also implied, in this thread, that only skinny is healthy and normal and anything plus is unhealthy and abnormal. That is insulting. Like eating disorders and drugs and pressure don’t exist in model industry. But according to some, as long as they look like that - it’s promoting health. Plus size people should just stay hidden, they don’t exist, if they dare to say something, they should be shamed. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreu 37,216 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 were was all this pro-plus size energy when it was the moment to stream Meghan Trainor's EP a few months ago but for real the OP made a point that I don't agree with, but he's not wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that it would be nice if she did include a plus size model since she's promoting diversity It's no deeper than that. And like I've said: Gaga would probably agree with me as she cares about diversity unlike some of you guys, apparently Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
