    being in shape is not unrealistic or unhealthy

    But all women are not a size 2...


    And all men are not 6'2 220 lbs..


    MORE realistic dont have to mean fat...

    Ayesha Curry has a "realistic" body... ? Steph Curry has a "realistic" body type...

    Not all ? can be "the rock" and not all females can be "Beyonce"

    Think of the females you have ? ...

    Those are realistic bodies..

    Agree that unrealistic body images are mostly harmful...but definitely not with banning them. ? type of ? is that? Some of y'all don't seem to understand the concept of 'slippery slope'.

    But what is the benefit of such advertising?

    Why are we always so quick want to show off everything we have. Be it our bodies and\or possessions?

    What the hell do some of you save for yourselves, your partners and family.

    I don't have an issue with this because, I am private person and I am totally ok with every damn thing not being for public consumption.

    It's a good thing imo because it encourages females to strive for an unrealistic body image. We got women going under the knife legally and illegally because they wanna fit in/look good. Adolescent teenage girls being anorexic and bulimic cause they wanna look like stick thin models or because ONE roll ? help us is the worst thing in the world.


    A lot of women are not naturally supposed to look like that cookie cutter image that's gracing ads. While y'all sitting up here fat shaming it's not just fat women/men that are feeling a way about the unnatural standards being shoved down our throats. ? plus size models are considered a size 12 and up when the common size for most women are size 14.

    Don't debate me debate your size 14 momma.

    Nothing. I encourage my family and friends to express their individuality. Who the ? wants to be that same as the other 7 billion people on its planet?

    Can't believe people are co-signing this, but I guess you new SJW ? are all about BS now. The same mentality that calls for ad bans, is the same one that tried to ban Hip Hop back in the day for offensive language. The same way that they tried to censor Too Live Crew for sexual language.

    By not putting guys like Ulysses and Simeon Panda in the pic?
    No way you think they are natural.

    Put guys that compete at a natural level.
    Guys that constantly prove they are natty.

    Its quite simple.

    Ehhh, Ulysses may have used before but over the last few years I can't see him juicing. No size increase. No vascularity increase. I follow him on IG and there hasn't been a significant amount of strength increase either. He could have juiced to build the foundation.

    both good and bad.

    like out here, they getting crazy with the strip club adverts.

    bad because this has shades of sharia law behind it.
    Am I wrong for giving the side eye to"Saiq Khan "? Seems more than just unrealistic appearances..
