Those T shirts on the ABC website run very small... not too smart to represent the full figure Betty !! I’d wear that T shirt if only I could find the size that fits.

All of you complaining about not having XXL shirts, how about you get off the keyboard, get outside and get in shape. Not to fit into an XS shirt, but to be HEALTHY.

Thank you for the recommendation. I wonder if I would enjoy reading about someone like me, sometimes I exhaust and overwhelm myself with my own passion. Although maybe it would be very comforting. I will definitely look it up. I know I still have a lot to learn and reading is always a good way to keep growing. I don't ever want to enforce my opinions, I just really, really believe in what I believe. I like being able to share my thoughts here and I'm happy for any input ... well except the angry kind, that I can do without. Thanks and take Care! To Beth,

You should read the book. It was wonderful!!

It shows that you don't have to be a Barbie doll to make it in the world, and that if you really want to pursue your dreams, don't give them up. I love the message behind the show and shirt. It shows

What a fantastic role model! We've finally got a young woman who isn't partying all night without underwear on! What a relief! America is beautiful and I was so thrilled she won at the Globes! I like the shirt, but it's definitely not something I would wear. I would buy it for someone else though since it's benefiting a good cause! I LOVE the show and I LOVE America!

I truly hope that this show is the catalyst the entertainment executives need to develop more stories with realistic and complex female characters. I love it - such a breath of fresh air!

I really hope BETTY sticks around too, it's a great show and often the great ones get canned, but so far it seems to have a lot of support. Take Care! To May, Thank you for your kind words. I wish you a lot of happiness in your life and that you may always know that like all kind women you are a Beautiful Betty. I really want to keep trying everyday to be a more compassionate person. Reading all these posts reminds me how supportive we need to be of each other, especially as women. As I say I am a big work in progress but I will keep trying to a better and more caring person. As far as I'm concerned Ugly should only be used to describe a cruel heart. But I am glad the show is being upfront with a word that for too long has been whispered in the background, thrown in peoples face or said behind people back's. It makes us all have to sit up and really take it in and fully realize what a horrible word it is and what aweful affects it has. Every good person out there is and deserves to feel beautiful. Here's to a more beautiful tommorrow, in time I believe things will keep getting better. Take Care and all the best. Thank you Dom.

The Actresses in Hollywood should look like her (majority of them) and not like a stick figure. If they get the XXL sizes I am going to purchase one. The show is wonderful.

I'm certainly no saint in that department but I'm a work in progress, just like society. I will continue to hope that over time things will change. This is an endearing show and I'm glad it's on tv. A lot of young girls need a show like this and it is a positive step forward. Beauty in all it's various forms is not a bad thing at all, our behaviour towards it is often very negative. I have reasonable hope that more positive shows and movies are on the horizon thanks in part to the great efforts of Ugly Betty. I expect nothing, but I hope for a lot!
