This entire piece seems to be bent. Whoever helped write this wasn't trying to contribute but to leverage some twisted view. Clean it up and out.

Models and ethnicity

This page talks about the models since 1960 till now a days, the different type of models and their standards, how they have to look and the measures or the characteristics they need to have and how those characteristics places them in certain a type or category. For example, come of this categories are fashion models (models who work for the runways, couture, among others), glamour (type of models who sell sexuality), fitness, parts models (hand models, legs, etc.), among others. But it doesn't mention anything about the injustice towards some particular ethnic models. For example, models who fit the standards required for the job they are applying to sometimes they don’t even get taken in consideration because of their ethnicity. Most runway shows don't have on purpose more than one black model and rarely a latino model. In my opinion this is an act of racism and should be talked and resolved, many models struggle every day to get a job in the fashion industry because they are not accepted even though they have the necessary requirements to the job. In the last big fashion shows we could see that the models were mostly white and some asian, there weren't much latino or black models. This is something that is happening right now and should be added and talked with the purpose of creating conscience among people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:8013:5DD0:7D08:9231:E60E:B9C2 (talk) 08:34, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
