I don’t either, but my car was being serviced for 3 hours, and the dealership is 40 minutes from my house so it didn’t really make sense to get a loaner car and drive home. So I walked around the damn mall and spent more on random crap than on the car service .
Macy’s now has plus size mannequins.

Sounds like a good thing. Plus size people want to see what clothing looks like on a body too. In fact, I would dare say that plus size clothing hanging on a hanger is more deceiving than misses size clothing on a hanger, therefore the plus sizes need mannequins more so.

Well... that depends. Are they doing it to show certain styles that are more flattering to plus size bodies or are they doing it to be PC and not “offend” people?

A large percentage of Americans wear plus sizes. Plus size mannequins are smart things for retailers to utilize. It has nothing to do with showing styles that are more flattering or being PC. It's all about making sales.
Plus size mannequins have been in stores for years. Nike, Jcpenney, target, old navy, forever 21, american eagle and nordstrom are just a few

Well, it should be about showing more flattering styles for plus size people.
