Coco Austin Quotes

The pressure is on the women to be particularly small, and then not only that, the whole package. It's extreme.

I don't think I'm curvaceous. It's simply that most other actresses are really, stupidly tiny.

The one thing I like about 'Playboy' is they don't have the anorexic look. The women are voluptuous. So I didn't really want to diet. I just wanted to tone up.

Personally I think women look better with a bit of chub on them.

I want to be a big, fleshy voluptuous woman with curves. I want a big bum, but I don't have one.

I have a boy's body. I would prefer to have more curves because I think that's more beautiful. I would much rather have J. Lo's body than mine.

I have never understood the clamour for waif-like women whose flesh acts merely as a thin veil for their bones - much as I would love to be thinner, I would hate to take it so far that I had no actual shape at all.

Thumbs up to the buxom woman. Size zero is boring!

I still don't know what the 'ideal' woman is. Waifs will always be in demand because it's a lot easier to design for straight up and down rather than round curves. This is the reality, unfortunately.

People don't just want to be thin. They want to be curvy.

Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. My mama, she told me don't worry about your size. She says boys like a little more booty to hold at night. Yeah I won't be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll, so if that's what you're into then go ahead and move along.

Standards of beauty are arbitrary. Body shame exists only to the extent that our physiques don't match our own beliefs about how we should look.

If you want someone who's big-boned and you like that, ain't nothing wrong with having a little extra meat on there. If you like them thin-boned, then that's okay, too.

I was essentially paid to perpetuate the myth that we are all, or should at least try to be, 17 and a size 2 forever.

I think that we can't deny the public's want for balancing out the images that are out there depicting women. Not all of us are 17 and a size two.

Well, you know, I have always had an issue with the whole weight thing with people in general because I happen to love how big women look. I mean, it's all a perspective. It's all an opinion, and I think sort of the Rubenesque, voluptuous body is a lot sexier than the boney bag of bones with fake everything.

My reality is never going to be stick-skinny.

I've never heard of a size 0 or a negative human. That's hard. A lot of girls aren't naturally built that way.

Do we have to be rail thin to possess 'outer beauty' and sex appeal and to be capable of attracting lovers?

It's really irrelevant, but I wouldn't want to be stick thin. It's better to have bit of fat on your face when you get older.

'Skinny' is only one body type.

America, you're sending girls a mixed message. On one hand, you're saying to have positive body image and love who we are; on the other, we're being marketed makeup and clothing that obviously turns us into someone different.

I think it's hilarious when people call Jessica Alba or Eva Longoria curvy. Come on. They're not curvy. They're small. I'm curvy.
