[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a luxury fitnesss brand...did they think it was going to be a bunch of chubby people touting Jenny Craig microwavable meals? Like wtf. It's a dumb commercial but I don't get why people think a brand that's aspiration based - people buying a Peloton aspire to be thin - should use overweight people.[/quote]

Bc she was already very thin. Her aspiration to be even thinner is what has people bashing the ad. [/quote]

The ad didn't say one word about being thin.  Not one.  It didn't mention weight once.  Everyone complaining about "aspiration to be thinner" is projecting their own feelings onto that fictional woman.  [/quote]

Ok well this was an explanation based on comments from people viewing the ad. You saw what you wanted and so did others. [/quote]

Not really, no.  I viewed the ad, and reported what was actually in it - the actual words used.  As I said, no mention of weight or size.  That's not seeing what I want, it's a factual description of what was in the ad.

The people who think this is about her wanting to be thinner, on the other hand, did see what they want - or what they fear, I guess.  [/quote]
