looking for a model for his school work it doesn't have anything to do with his personal life of preference or anything
it's not like he's gonna fuck the model
and it's not like he can use his bf as a model since he doesn't really "fit the standard of the fashion industry" and that's not a bad thing, he's an athlete, he's not supposed to look like a model
Are we reading the same thing? The ml is tall and ripped he does fit the beauty standard he just needs to tone his midsection, which a crash starvation diet was never going to do, he just needed to keep an eye on the type of carbs and fats he was eating, probably reducing them but not changing his caloric intake and adding core engaging cardio to the end and beginning of his workouts he already does. The Mc is ONLY focused on his preference which is SUPER skinny like him for his model. That's his preference not the beauty standard. my point is he could have used his boyfriend but they were both focused on mcs ideal. Also he could use his bf regardless if he was actually innovative and good who cares what the beauty convention is
i think if you actually read the damn comic since it's right there you'd actually have the ability to realise that EVEN IF he wanted his bf to model his clothes, it's just not viable right now.
He already had a model for a good while, several outfits are probably already made to that person's measurements. He can't modify them to fit a larger build, he is in need of someone that can fit and model his clothes.
and that's not even mentioning that thinking an athlete that is perfectly comfortable in his weight class has any business starving himself is absolutely unhinged
The ml went on a diet so he could be his bfs model, then the whole time he actively ruined his dieting (which is fine because the way he was trying to diet was mad unhealthy) and telling him he loves his body the way it is...........but now he's still looking for a model. Wtf?
