The Gossip singer Beth Ditto says gay men in the fashion industry are to blame for the worrying size zero trend.

Plus-sized Beth, who has posed naked for this month's cover of NME magazine, slammed homosexual designers for putting unrealistic pressure on women to be skinny.

Beth told the music publication, "If there's anyone to blame for size zero, it's not women. Blame gay men who work in the fashion industry and want these women as dolls.

"Men don't know what it feels like to be a woman and be expected to look a particular way. The Beckhams are part of the machine, Paris Hilton is part of the machine.

"There's that thing Paris Hilton said about Lindsay Lohan, 'You're poor, ugly and fat.' It's always women who are victims."

The openly lesbian singer - who is 5-feet tall and weighs around 15 stones (210 pounds) - insists her supermodel pal Kate Moss understands what it's like for women to be persecuted for being large, and is not to blame for the alarming skinny trend.

She said, "I spent one night talking to Kate Moss and she said the most amazing things about bodies. I didn't think I was going to like her, but she said, 'Do you know what I hate, Beth? When people tell my big girlfriends, 'You have a beautiful face.' That's a really radical concept."

The 'Standing in the Way of Control' singer was named the coolest person in rock by NME last year, and has posed in her underwear for Vogue magazine.

So women's weight problems can be blamed on gay men? That's a stretch.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

Wait until the gay community responds to this...and they should.

Why, she's talking about gay men in fashion houses, not gay men of the world. What she should have said is "men" rather than "gay men." Men are the only people in fashion who don't secretly suffer from the way they make women feel they should look. And most of those men are gay, so I see how she made the mistake. My friend's boss is a famous designer who at 50-something is trying to diet down to 104 lbs. and feels fat at 118.

That may be true, but you can blame gay men for some of those down right strange and ugly dresses they wear to the award ceremonies. :whistle:

Women should just STFU, go back to the kitchen and stop blaming men for everything.
