I do understand your point, Rudey. However, according to the article, the size range was 4-12. 12 is NOT obese. 12 is chunky probably for most women under 6 feet, but NOT obese (Unless you are 5 feet tall). 12 is not even plus-sized. So I think it's a bit extreme for people to say they're promoting an unhealthy lifestyle or the other end of the spectrum. The other end would be a 300 pound woman.
Isn't an 8 average?

Let's assume a 12 is average. If obesity rates are that high, then I don't think the average is anything you should want to approach.

I don't think you should have to put up with a hairy, fat, bald man in a speedo every day on large billboards throughout the city, and you probably don't since I haven't seen them in NY. I shouldn't have to put up with these gladiator women in granny panties every morning.
