Jordan barrett

It really doesn’t ‘demand’ extreme youth as much as it used to. I think this is more in his head than anything else. The industry has welcomed back many models who are past the age of 40, they even found a love for people over 300lbs. Jordan is coming up on 30 soon so maybe it’s his own insecurities of getting older. He def goes for the androgynous look lately but the ultra-skinny body just does not look that great on him. His build demands more muscle then just skin and bones.
Thank you. I'm so annoyed with the "the industry is so toxic, it demands they all be skinny" crap. Yeah there was a period of time when that was the case (and even then this was mainly on the female side of the industry, men haven't had the same pressures to be waif thin to nearly the same degree if at all.) The industry is much more diverse now and body positive than it's ever been.

This is on Jordan and whatever issues he's dealing with personally, not the industry demanding it of him. I follow hundreds of male models on IG and most of them are either lean muscular to very athletic with some visible body fat or solid muscle to some degree. And if some are skinny, it's clearly just their natural body type but they don't look unhealthy
