Is a size 12 considered as a plus size?

Posted at: 2014-07-17 
I'm 19 and a size 12, ive always been happy with my body as its in proportion (dont mean to sound big headed) but i was on a site looking for clothes and found a plus size model size 12. Their is nothing wrong at all with being a plus size, but it's making me feel guilty that everyone is now putting size 12 to a plus size.

size 12 is a good healthy size and there is nothing wrong with it. It's the first size in a plus size store sometimes, but it's also still available in regular stores as the largest size. I think it's ridiculous what they consider plus size now.

Wasn't 16 was the beginning of plus sizes? It figures. In their incessant efforts to make women feel bad about their bodies, it wouldn't surprise me if the designer's definition was now down to 12. Sad. Really sad.

12?! a PLUS SIZE! whaaat, my friend who is PERFECT body size is a size 10 and shes 16, there is nothing plus size about 12! maybe its just that way for models because models are soo skinny that 12 is a plus size..for them!

who cares, plus size is hot guuuurl

Girl, I say if you are happy, you work it. Anything over a four is considered being bigger in the "world" today, and it's all crap! Every woman should love herself for the way she is. It's so refreshing to read someone saying they are happy with themselves. Keep that going. =)
