Now since 61 percent of the adult population was either overweight or obese in 1999 and that number has grown, I don't think it's great to promote an average that's skewed to promote being overweight and obese. If these girls were thin, they wouldn't be promoting fat cream.

And I don't think you understand how different this is in NYC vs. Chicago. In NYC, it's not everywhere. In Chicago you will see it everywhere.

It's kinda funny, but I bet that if these were skinny girls in thongs, all the chicks would be flipping out. Since it's big softball-player type girls in granny undies, all the chicks dig it.

OK, given you made the disclaimer, I actually can understand your thinking a little better. I still don't tihnk showing women this size is promoting being overweight.

And, I never said I was hot - I don't fall into that category. I'm "pretty" but that doens't mean a non-skinny girl can't be hot.

And they are all over NYC - espcially the suburbs where I live - there's at least one on each side of every Metro North platform.

AND, I wouldn't care if they were skinny (as I've seen plenty of skinny girls with cellulite!) if they were in the same clothes with the same lack of make-up these ladies are. If they were vamped up in thongs and sultry make-up, that would be a different story.
