I think a lot of the problem is that larger sizes are still designed to fit large but proportionate women. Plus-size models still have flatter stomachs compared to the average large woman, and have waists. So, as far as I'm concerned, it's all misleading.
By the way, I classify "real women" by how the mass looks. I don't think "real" applies to the average women who are big OR skinny ~ NOT models.
Yeah, I really mean no offense to anyone but that's actually kinda insulting. Fashion may fail certain kinds of women (it does), but even if they make up some majority and other girls don't, that doesn't make one group more "real" than the other. You'd be surprised (or maybe not) at the hostility that naturally thin girls or others get. If you're thin you're not a real women, you're also not just thin you're emaciated and sick looking, and you skipped all your meals and threw everything up to get that way, well, just saying.
Yeah, I understand that. I am thin and I have already dealt with conflict on the matter. ALL women have it tough when it comes to their appearance. No matter if you're curvy, skinny, obese, anorexic, short and tall. The problem is still there.

Also women over a certain age who don't want to look frumpy.

I agree with what you said about the hostility directed at thin women by "real" women, especially those of us who would be "real" if we didn't diet and work out every day.
I didn't read the title as a snub to thinner women, but I can see how it could be construed that way. Poor choice of words, unless the author wanted to rile people up.
