[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women just can't win and other women are the reason.

Unless a woman conforms to a standard that other women have set for her, she is going to be called gross and unattractive. this is supposed to be a child of maybe 15-16 in the commercial just figuring out who she is and trying to love herself. But DCUM harpies have to be hating on everything. I'm sure you'd all be up in arms if someone commented on how your daughter's shorts were too tight. [/quote]

The thing about ads is this: they should resonate with the most people in a positive way.

I’ll never understand why marketing firms think showcasing something that isn’t likely to resonate with most women will yield positive results. [b]Face it: you rarely see a woman with a mustache IRL. [/b]It’s not a good look.

There are other ways to convey nonconformity. A Mohawk. Purple hair. A granny in a moto jacket. A teen in coastal grandma gear. [/quote]

Haven’t seen the ad, but the bolded is going to vary depending on where you live and what kind of crowd your kid runs with. I have a teenage daughter in a school for performing and visual arts, and there is a whole lot of body and facial hair going on in the born-female crowd. So much so that I hardly register it on young women anymore. There is definitely a conscious radical self-acceptance movement among a certain group of young women and they absolutely couldn’t care less who they offend.[/quote]
