Question

Why is it so much easier for a male model to get work than a female model?

Answer 1

My friend is a female model and she told me that there are so many diverse looking girls in the fashion industry whereas the guys sort of all have the same look and body. A guy easier to shape whereas its harder for a girl.

Answer 2

I think I will quote from a guy friend " There is so many beautiful girls in the world, but very few really good looking guys".
