What do you think about the ads by Dove featuring "women with curves"?

I remember the first time I saw it and found it offensive. I was going to write Dove to tell them that I did not like that ad. I think it is the girl with the giant tatoo that did it. I do not find that beautiful. Sorry but I don't think anyones body was meant to be a billboard.

I love them. It's a very healthy for girls and young women to see these lovely women up on billboards.

I have mixed feelings... I like the idea that there are beautiful, curvy women in ads, what I don't like is that the ads are for thigh-firming cream! How about a sexy full-figured girl in an ad for shoes? Or clothing? Has anyone seen the new H&M ad campaign featuring Mia Tyler? Not only are they making uber-trendy beautiful couture, but they're using honest-to-God plus-size models to advertise it! Someone finally figured out that size 6 is not plus-size.

People often mistake curves for fat.
