Ok, I love Psych and all the characters. But why is Shawn always paired with a thin, pretty, model-like girl? I mean, are there no full figured, plus size women in Santa Barbara? I know it's just a TV show but, as a girl who is full-figured and plus size, I was sort of upset and offended. I just wish that the writers would follow in the footsteps of My Big Fat Greek Wedding and Hairspray; a full-figured woman falling in love with a hunky guy. God bless.

PS: If anyone was offended or hurt by my message, I'm deeply sorry. I just needed to express myself.

Nope, I'm definitely not offended. But it's that way in most of Hollywood, so that's who ends up in a lot of shows. I agree that it would be cool to see him paired with a different body type though. More of them (and by them I mean us) should be on television.

No worries about the venting, girl. It's like ladymahogany wrote, typical Hollywood (or Vancouver, the new Hollywood) casting. Crummy but true. sad.gif

I Sooo Love This! I Was Thinking Of The Same Thing! Why Do I See Sooo Many Skinny Ladies And No Normal Ladies! I Think Its Time For "The Winds Of Change".

Maybe it's not that there are no plus-sized girls, but, isn't it more than likely that Shawn is attracted to thin ones?
