Stuff like this deepens my impression that all advertising should be burned in a fire.
I know that's impractical, but the damage it does to society is hard to stomach.
At least this stuff is encouraging girls to try and attain a healthy weight, unlike today’s tits on a stick advertising…
I dunno. For some people, a healthy weight is "skinny". For others, it's "voluptuous". Trying too hard to attain an "unnatural" weight is unhealthy, no matter which "direction" you're trying in.
Ads like this one blanket all women as needing a certain amount of "tits", otherwise men wouldn't be interested in them. Without getting into how bad it is to have women care about their weight because of what some men will think instead of for their own health's sake - lesbians see ads also and should also care about their health despite not caring one bit how attractive they might be to men.
This ad was post-depression, where getting enough to eat while growing up was a huge problem.
Edit: not to say the advertisers weren't playing on insecurities That's SOP for advertising.
I don’t disagree with you at all. My comment was intended to be more tongue in cheek…
