Let's face it though - if you put a size 0 and a size 20 in a pageant together, the size 0 could resemble a bloodhound after getting run over by a truck, and she's still probably going to win (especially if there's a swimsuit competition). Yes, there are some individuals that prefer plus-size, but they are greatly outnumbered by those who buy into the notion that slim=pretty.
