Today, I asked my friend who is a fashion major why she didn't want to use me as a model for her senior project. She said my boobs were too big. I doubt it'd have been an issue if I were a girl. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a little girl asked me how I could be so fat and still have small boobs. Great question. FML
Today, I was walking with my girlfriend, when she walked ahead of me cat-walk style, turned around and said, "Do you think I could model?" I blurted out, "Yes... for a plus-size clothing line." FML
Today, a classmate accused me of having butt implants because "women can't have a huge ass and pancake tits". FML
Today, my 4 year-old daughter was looking at a magazine cover with a well endowed model showing off her cleavage. She looked at me and said, "Mommy, when I grow up, will I have big round boobies like her or tiny pointy ones like you?" FML
Today, when people ask me what I’m doing this summer and I answer that I’m going into plus-size modeling, they rudely say, “Oh, me too,” or, “Oh, my grandma too.” I have an hourglass figure and spent hours on my portfolio, but everyone still thinks I’m just trying to feel better about being fat. FML
Today, I was doing a sewing project in class. My friend said we should get the teachers to model our designs. I said that I did not think I would have enough material to make clothes for one of the teachers. I said this in front of the whole class very loudly, while the teacher was right next to me. FML
Today, my mom, sister, and I were talking about a friend's girlfriend. My sister's opinion of her was that she was cute but not hot. My mom agreed, saying that she didn't think that someone without boobs could EVER be hot. She then looked at me and said, "No offense." FML
Today, I was in the car with my boyfriend when I said, "I wish all the weight I gained just went to my boobs." His reply was, "They'd be HUGE." FML
Today, I was sitting on a rather small, uncomfortable bean bag while my friend was sitting on a nice chair. She asked if I wanted to switch seats, not so I could be more comfortable, but because she thought I was too fat and that I would burst the bean bag. FML
Today, I was chosen out of 64 women to model for the catalog of a new clothing store. Just when my self-confidence took a dramatic boost, I looked at the evaluation sheet. I was picked due to attributes such as my "extra large figure and average face" to make below average women feel beautiful. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

YDI. Not going to lie, if you knew you were fat, you're not exactly going to be chosen as a model =/ I'm not saying it's right that we have this mentality of skinny models, but we live in the real world. I'm sorry to say. Skinny is in, fat is not. It just seems weird to me that you would sound so offended when it was more or less pretty clear in our media that models need to be skinny. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying you just set yourself up for disappointment. BTW. Models don't have big boobs. Big boobs don't necessarily make a model. 34-24-34 is the body shape.

Completely agreed. You took the words right out of my mouth. OP definitely deserved it.

That's pretty much what i was going to say. Instead of the whole skinny thing, i think in many places a person has to have a healthy look. Having man boobs is not a model like image and it would be a bit wrong to even promote that as a model. Just as wrong as promoting super skinny girls/guys w.e I would say the op's life sucks for having moobs but he totally deserved it for not realizing why he was not chosen for this position and then getting upset when he was told the truth about something his friend can't control.

yupp, you can't be fat in the model world i'm a model and they say that they make clothes a certain size so fat people won't fit them.

"they say"? :/ Who is this "they"? I'm a model too and I've never heard of this "they"; there are pragmatic reasons behind the size of models, not industry professionals sitting around cackling over using thin models for no good reason. The fashion industry is not a pity party. Its job is not to represent the broader population nor to pander to individuals who don't happen to fit the fashion model mould. Fashion models need to be tall and thin because they need to be seen from everywhere in the room even right in the back with a non-elevated runway. If the models are not seen, the clothes are not seen. The clothes are the entire point to the show in the first place. It's not about you. The clothes are in sample sizes meaning they need to be as small as possible to minimise costs - haute couture fabrics can be several hundred dollars a metre. Also, the smaller the model is, when the heights are relatively consistent, the more uniform the look. This means the audience and clients can focus on the clothes not about how good/bad/interesting the models are. Again, fashion modelling is about showing off the fashion, not the fashion showing off the model. These sample garments are usually then taken directly to editorial/look-book/advertising shoots, meaning the models wearing the garments in the editorials need to be about the same size as those wearing them on the runway. Agencies, therefore, take on tall, thin models. If they can cross over into commercial work, all the better. It is very rare an agency will take on a girl just for, say, her face. Why? Because that girl would only ever be able to be shot from the shoulders up. If, however, they take on models with the full package - face, height, body - they can maximise the jobs that model can book and therefore how much money they can make off said model. Please don't make it sound like a ridiculous conspiracy.
