A SIGN OF THE TIMES



This notice in a shop window is telling me that, if I buy a certain type of bra, I will not need to resort to plastic surgery to make my bust look a size bigger, the bust being the only part of a woman's body where she is allowed or encouraged to gain weight. Feminism, come back - we need you!

  1. I prefer it for people to notice me for things other than my bust!!

  2. This is bizarre advertising tag - I prefer that we all look just as nature intended, not too fat, not too skinny but just right!:)

  3. Much as I like that part of the female anatomy very much, there are so many other more pressing things to consider.

    Ach.. so much marketing seems to be deigned to make women dysmorphic. What's the bet that it is men who create it!
