It's a way of putting down all women - because those curvy women will also appear in magazines like Hello! and OK! being derided for daring to eat a burger and having a bit of tummy flab, while the skinny women will sometimes be derided for having visible bones. No body type is ever widely applauded.
For some ~*~bizarre~*~ reason, this happens less with male bodies.
