What real women look like.

[Phteven]

Why?
A recent study found that 95% of non-eating disordered women overestimate the size of their hips by 16% and their waists by 25%, yet the same women were able to correctly estimate the width of a box.

I stumbled across this site tonight. It's just in its infancy but their aim is to collect galleries of women of all shapes and sizes to help women look at their body with a little more perspective. A little like The Shape of a Mother but not just for mothers.
I think it's a great initiative. Check it out and post your photo if you have one.

Thats awesome. I just searched women who are roughly my size and they look great! So its a real eye opener that just because i am not a size 12 doesn't mean that i don't look good too.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Onyx! A great site!

A question if anyone knows....American sizes are different from Aussie sizes though aren't they? What is the difference, is it a size up or down...so if I were an aussie size 12, would that be a 14 in American sizing?

3little, it's the opposite by two sizes. So an Aussie 14 is an American 10.
