Why do these girls look as though they are in their mid-twenties early thirties. Way to much for fifteen to nineteen year old girls...SMH!!! Not a very wholesome look...
But good luck to them all.

Now now...as if the world doesn't already have a skewed standard of beauty. You don't need to be tall and slim to be in a beauty pageant...

I get where you are coming from but there is a lot that factors into being fat. It's one thing to be a person of larger proportion versus a person who is obese. Not all people who are "overweight" are unhealthy or any less of a productive citizen.
A common misconception is because you are slim or small that you are healthy and that is far from the truth. There are people who by society's standard would be considered fat and disgusting but in actuality they are healthier than the slim well built person everyone so seems to favour.
Rather than worry about the size of a person focus more on the general health. Now don't get me wrong more than likely if you are seriously obese then there is nothing healthy about you. But a little bit of fat ain't a bad thing, and I don't think these girls need the added pressure of what society deems beautiful to mess them up.
