I think they look to tin as it is
I have heard this before, However...I offer another point.
They need a model update in the first place. Have you seen human female hands,fingers,thighs and feet? Jesus it's like they were constructed with lego's. Just the ugliest thing ever. Hell even human males look better than them.
Not fat enough. They look OK from the front, but they have a slab where their ass should be.
OMG 13:37 - Then Jesus said to His disciples, "Cleave unto me, and I shall grant to thee the blessing of eternal salvation."
And His disciples said unto Him, "Can we get Kings instead?"
They're not fat at all. I find their body shape very attractive.
Sexual selection is typically based on qualities that would aid in natural selection--males who are fit, sociable, and handsome will have an easier time finding a mate than an antisocial, unattractive male (no insults meant to anyone here, just making an argument), because the desirable traits in the attractive male can carry on to the next generation (in turn, giving the best odds of creating desirable offspring if the mother is also desirable), yadda yadda species continues. Females who are better-prepared to birth and raise a child (wide hips, large breasts, and similar secondary/tertiary sexual characteristics), on a primal level, offer a better chance for the species. Anything beyond that is a social construct or personal preference, and in no way indicative of evolution.

+1, thank you.
Wish we'd get rid of this "girls have to be anorexic" bullshit. You realize 99% of the shit you see in media is photoshopped? E.a.: NOT REAL. Start enjoying our real bodies, men.
I for one think they're too skinny if anything. I'm loving the pandas though. Perfect!
Not joking, but some real females(my sister for example) are skinny even if they eat a lot. They just can't get fatter.
Now people here actually hate blood elfs, because they are "too thin"?
If you hate overweight or underweight people, it's exactly the same...
Stop hating thin girls because of media!
1. Not humans, don't apply human values.Blood elves are too thin.
2. They are supposed to be a race suffering from withdrawal and hardship.
Thanks for putting stuff I wanted to say in more fitting words. ^^Anything beyond that is a social construct or personal preference, and in no way indicative of evolution.
That is the thing tho, OK so may be the human model is "average", but do we want average? No, most people want "pretty". While the definition of pretty may vary from person to person, majority of the people would find pretty in the "media's average".
Is the human model too fat? No.
Would I prefer them to be slimmer? Yes.
There's an inherent problem with using terms like 'most people' and 'majority' in regards to a subjective matter like beauty without sources: there's no proof that you're speaking for a supposed majority. Instead, it comes off as you positing a personal opinion and trying to push it as a majority opinion.

Personally, I equally love blood elves, humans, pandaren, orcs, and night elves because they all represent different ideals of beauty--the human is the middle ground, fit but not ripped, and not fat, blood elves are slender, pandaren are more heavyset but wear the weight well, orcs are strong but feminine, and night elves are tall and athletic.

True. How about Stop hating women because of their body types period. Mind your own damn business! If you don't want a particular body type for yourself then do what you can to change it to your liking and what you can't fix learn to live with. If you aren't attracted to particular body types don't date people with them.
Threads like this are hurtful and generally hateful. Some people have no clue how much the public perception and comments can affect others.
I STILL remember and feel insecure about my legs after a friend made a comment about mine turning purple when I'm cold in 1994. I stopped wearing skirts for many many years after that one insensitive comment, and it was one of many made about my appearance that really messed me up when I was a teen. People can be so cruel.
FWI my body type is the same as WoW humans. Yeah I have thunder thighs, large breasts and big hips, but a small waist and thin face and lower legs. It's one of many body types and there is nothing weird or wrong about it.
"Healing is a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos. All the healers try to gobble all the marbles up. Disc priests take the marbles off the board."
Heheh yeah Kids are cruel. Esp if you are handicapped. But you'll eventually get over it.I STILL remember and feel insecure about my legs after a friend made a comment about mine turning purple when I'm cold in 1994. I stopped wearing skirts for many many years after that one insensitive comment, and it was one of many made about my appearance that really messed me up when I was a teen. People can be so cruel.
BTW: This is not a thread about real women. It's a discussion about an ingame model. There is nothing hurtful about it.
Agreed.That is the thing tho, OK so may be the human model is "average", but do we want average? No, most people want "pretty".
That "Pretty" very much depends on your target audience though. If you want to address a wide one "average" is a safe bet.
