Yall have to see how dangerous this is and how slippery the slope is. I mean really, so now you can't voice your opinion regarding if you believe a person is attractive or not?? Some fat chick comes up and tries to holla, you kinda find some other reason other than her looks to turn her down?

Even fat hoes don't want fat dudes. Case in point:

This ish will somehow filter into the LGBTQ conversation regarding "cis" men not wanting to date trannies because most "cis" men do not find trannies attractive. But, saying so publicly will get you flamed and canceled in the future.

This ish is crazy.

First and only pic I have seen of her I think....and she's big but not lizzo big(or worse....the "this is us" white chick big), so I'm not disgusted. Edit: seen a few more via Google and like Ashley Graham...pretty chick, but the body is a mess. Got the cover for inclusiveness ...oh well. I'm actually glad they chose a non-black model for it...because usually I'd expect them to have a bunch of in shape white chicks and then a 230lbs black model.


Somebody should ask Jordan straight up if his woman is beautiful though :lol:. Cause his answer would be hilarious either way he goes. ...cause big or not, Yumi looks wayyyyy better than his wife....so either he's gotta lie, cop out....or publicly dis his woman. ...and he can't use her cancer as an excuse. She looked like that way before she got sick.

I don't have a problem with people who are overweight or disabled being able to feel good about themselves but these magazines are made for the male gaze and most of us want to see women who are in shape and better looking than the average woman.

Even in porn, while there are pornstars that are heavier than average and older than the ideal the most popular pornstars are going to be young, in shape women, and as one poster said, you aren't going to see fat dudes with huge bellies on the covers of magazines being promoted as handsome.

Rihanna tried it with her Fenty men's line but that didn't last long and was only here and there.

Yumi Nu ‘shaking’ over SI Swimsuit cover reveal

Last week, model Yumi Nu visited her agent for what she thought was a routine interview and career check in.
But while she was answering questions earnestly, “My agents were in on this little plan,” the 25-year-old told The Post. Midway through the “interview,” Sports Illustrated Swimsuit honcho MJ Day and other staffers from the bikini bible popped out with a camera crew as the cover of this year’s magazine, featuring Nu, filled a nearby monitor.
“I was processing the surprise of it not being a real interview and that this was actually the SI cover reveal. I could not speak. I had full body chills. I was shaking, I was crying. They really got me good,” said Nu.

Her first call was to her boyfriend Dimitri Dinas.

“He was freaking out. He was like, ‘If I were a teenage boy, I’d have a poster of you in my room. Now I’m dating an SI cover star.’ “

He has many reasons to be proud of his girlfriend. It’s been a stretch of career highlights for the plus-sized model and singer who is of Dutch and Japanese extraction. (Her mother is the daughter of Benihana founder Rocky Aoki, and she is the niece of DJ Steve Aoki). She was part of an ensemble of supermodels to grace the cover of the iconic September Vogue issue, and in April, she was the first Asian curve model to land the cover of Vogue Japan.
“It’s amazing. I’m on cloud nine. This is nothing I could prepare for. It’s unexpected. I feel like we’re in a place right now where people are making space for more diversity on magazine covers. It’s a big time for Asian-American people in media. I know I play a big role in representation in body diversity and race diversity, and I love to be a role model and representative of the plus-size Asian community.”
Born in New Jersey, Nu moved to Maryland as a tot, and at 14, her family went out to California, where she attended high school. As a young child, she started her career in front of the camera, but the first stint was fleeting.

“My mom had experience in commercial modeling, so when we lived in New Jersey, she would take me to do some kids catalogs. When you are a toddler and screaming and crying, you have no sense of self control. She knew I wasn’t enjoying it,” said Nu.
The beauty returned to modeling when she was 12, the same age she started singing lessons. By 15, she was writing her own songs and realistically saw her future in the music world.
“I wasn’t sure where the [modeling] industry was headed. I think I was a size 10 then, and the only people working were either a size 2 or a size 14. I really had my sights set on music, but then the industry left more room for me to be a part of it. Once the trends of inclusion came upon us, it was easier for me to make a living and a career out of it. It was like, ‘Oh, there are so many possibilities, and there are no bounds on what anyone can do now,’ ” she said.
She is quick to credit Ashley Graham and Sports Illustrated for fostering that seismic shift. In 2016, Graham landed the cover, shattering norms and opening the door for a variety of body shapes to take center stage.
“Her SI cover changed so many people’s lives, and I think it changed the industry because you have this legendary publication putting its first curve model on the cover,” she said, adding that Hunter McGrady has also served as an inspiration.

But Nu doesn’t have to look beyond her family tree for insight and support, particularly her mother’s sister, Devon Aoki.
“She has a cult following and will be a classic model for the rest of time. She has really helped me this year now that I am working with a lot of bigger names, like Steven Meisel. She has helped me stay grounded and remember why I am doing what I am doing.”
On Friday she is also releasing her EP, “Hajime,” which is Japanese for “the beginning.”

What do you think? Post a comment.
But as Nu is multitasking in both the music and modeling world, she is looking forward to a break, which includes lounging and episodes of Netflix’s “Grace and Frankie.”
“I don’t think hustle culture is something I want to promote,” she said. “I want to enjoy life.”

Where did it say she was "beautiful"? Some cats can see beauty in this, some don't. A motherfcukin' "doctor" jumps on Sports Illustrated social medias, unprovoked to call her out as NOT beautiful??? That shyt sounds like a troll. Like; 'why are you even here?!?!?'

Hold on, I'm gonna go buy a ticket to a Hansen concert so I can boo them! I just wasted A LOT of time and energy for something I apparently don't like...that doesn't sound clinical to ya'll???

This cat made his fame by saying he didn't want the government telling him how to think or speak, but he wants to tell a company that he doesn't work for, who to put on THEIR covers...I am not trying to cape for this broad, but who invited this motherfcuker?!?!

and for the record Jordan Peterson, the cac who called her not beautifulo, married this:
jordan-peterson-tammy-roberts.jpg


He's a faggot and so is any dude who follows him.

...so he found beauty in this? If I were to go in on her and I DEFINITLEY could, I would be the bad guy cause there is NO REASON for me to dog...sorry wrong choice of words for this...woman. For me to make fun of her, cause HE married her not me! The fcuk would he or I care about what I think about her looks?

Sorry I can't help myself:
What kind of father and son relationship do THEY have that they took a picture that close?!?!
Your...wife looks a little strong in the face!
She's such a handsome woman!
She looks like what an alien thinks humans look like after doing heroin!
He looks like he said twenty years ago: "I want to find the most expressionless woman in Canada!"
Man! Looks like Linda Hamilton isn't doing well anymore.

That fat buildup behind her elbows is unacceptable. Look at that honkey's face. He is like, my God......am I really doing this this? Smiling won't make the humiliation and pain go away. Plus he has a homosexual aura.

But nobody said she was beautiful. If the Bigg-Uns adult magazine puts a broad with b-cup size breasts on its cover why am I wasting energy to tell them and the world that this model doesn't have big breasts? For a doctor and someone who is supposed to be smart, he does a lot of talking before actually thinking shyt out.

And by all means have and voice your opinion, but just like everything your actions comes with reactions. You don't like the reactions don't do that action!

The old adage "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" would apply here. This guy's a bitch for running away.

This bitch ain't Asian, she is ugly, dude has his opinions. Don't get why it's such a big deal

Because this cat made his name on telling the Canadian government to not tell him how to think or speak. Then he jumps on social media unprovoked to tell a company how to run itself. Nobody said that the model was beautiful. He talks about the troll aspects of social media, but then he also indulges in it.

What makes him racist? Please share actual quotes.

I don't think he's racist, I think people think this cause of the people who try to use his teachings or quote him. To my knowledge he has never said anything racists. He has spoken against those people trying to use his work.
