I’m sorry, so for the past 4 years we only had “ugly” women in ads?
Does this idiot understand how marketing even works?
Yeah, we had more plus sized models, because for one, they are a target market for advertisement because, and I know this sounds crazy, plus sized women also need clothes and gasp humans like to see “people like them” in ads and people like “pretty people like them” even better.
None of this is new and this is just more Maga brain rot

Decades of the wealth class pushing for privatization of essential services such as education by slashing budgets of public services.
Those individuals also just so happen to have stake in those private entities.
The result is a populace who isn’t educated enough to know that they’re trapped in an endless grift.
And the stupider someone is, the more emotionally reactive they are. So we’ve got the people pushing the culture war shit who know that they’re full of shit, and the hapless idiots that pass along the message thanks to being tricked into being scared of their fellow man for inane reasons.
Toss in organized religion, and baby you got an ignorance stew brewin!

But uh… what?
Like, I’ll give you that Prada seems to consistently go for models that kinda look like aliens, with pretty big eyes and generally chiseled or striking features, they try to emphasize triangular faces and chins, strong cheekbones…
But… are these not generally attractive women?

Meanwhile, the ad companies do not care.
The right wants to claim these companies are on their side. The companies aren’t on their side, they’re not on anybody’s side. If they think they can generate more sales with a fat, black model in a bikini, they’ll do it. If it’s a thin trans model, they’ll do that. If it’s a slim blonde with big tits and a swastika tattoo, they’ll do that instead. Whatever moves product.

(Yes, I get the joke)
What the hell causes people to believe there’s a large political faction that wants people in media to be unattractive? At worst, some people just get taken out of a fantasy world if the women are wearing straight bikinis for no reason, but there’s many ways to make them look sexy without attire being totally impractical.

I quite enjoy how those who are pro senseless lewdness in advertising are often the same people who want women to cover up.
AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 2 hours ago
It’s because there’s a significant proportion of people whose preferences are something behind “skinny, white, conventionally feminine woman”, and so when people outside of that demographic are featured in media, it freaks them out because their preferences are limited to people who fit within that narrow description, so wider diversity of people depicted in media is, to them, synonymous with a push for unattractive people in media.
That in and of itself isn’t a problem — they have every right to their own preferences, and I have no interests in trying to convince them of anything. The problem is because they have attached themselves to the idea that their personal preferences are the objective standard. So when they see more diversity in media, and others thirsting for people they would consider to be objectively unattractive, this destabilises the idea that their preferences are The Truth. This means that, rather than just accepting that people like what they like, they contort themselves into believing that this is all a big conspiracy to try to push objectively unattractive people into media. Framing things like that means they end up seeing this as something that is entirely a political push to erode all foundations of society as part of some Woke ploy. They feel threatened and genuinely scared that there will be a future where there is literally no-one who they find attractive represented in media. Which is to say that someone who is accustomed to being the boot distrusts people who want there to be no boot, because surely they must be lying so that they can seize power and be the boot and crush everyone else.
At the heart of this is a zero-sum way of thinking of the world. They have deeply internalised that if one group in society gains rights, or power of any sort, then it must come at the cost of someone else. Some of them occasionally show awareness of the moral awfulness of them using their privilege to oppress others in society, and they briefly have moments where they understand that if the oppressed wished to take our retribution against them, we would be justified. However, they are incapable (or unwilling) to actually reckon with all the cognitive dissonance they’ve built up, and so their fear causes them to become ever more rigid in their worldview.
I find it fascinating, really. I am a fat, queer punk, and my existence is viscerally horrifying to them, because I am the epitome of so much of what they hate, and it breaks their brains to imagine that someone could find me attractive (tbh, it still sort of breaks my brain a bit too, but I’m getting there with improving my confidence). They genuinely believe that THE WOKE LEFT want everyone in media to look like me, even though that would be the opposite of the diversity we actually want.
They don’t believe us when we say this though. Their zero sum thinking combined with their willful inability to acknowledge that their own preferences are as subjective as anyone’s means they don’t believe us when we say this though, and that this is all part of our dastardly plot to seize absolute power for ourselves and make them be the oppressed ones.
It’s quite sad for them in the end. I’ve found that a huge part of what has allowed me to become more confident in myself has been acknowledging and embracing all the non conventional things I find attractive in other people. For instance, I firmly believe that the most beautiful point on basically any human body is the point where the curvature of the calf turns from being convex to concave. And because I don’t feel the need to convince other people of this, I can just let myself like what I like and be free to bite my partners’ calves. Even if their tastes do genuinely align with what is considered to be this narrow notion of “conventionally attractive”, I can’t imagine they feel very free to actually enjoy their own desires and their own bodily potential

Let’s take a look at plus-size models. That’s a really good example.
It makes this rift between haas/body acceptance and what’s really actually healthy.
But on the flip side, super-skinny models aren’t exactly healthy, either.
Both normalize unhealthy weight and lead to population-wide body image problems and related eating disorders. Then you get things like social media throwing rocket fuel on that fire.
I don’t see how either is “woke” though.

The “ideal” body size has been underweight for a long time now in the US. This isn’t about being “healthy,” but about what society has told them should make their dick hard.

Ehhhhh… I have met a number of people who just naturally are that skinny, and not by way of anorexia or bulimia.
Not saying there’s no possibility of that here.
But I am saying that some people actually just are that skinny or thin, or of waifish frame, and they aren’t all feinting from headrushes or anemia or iron deficiency all the time.
This is about on the borderline, by my eye at least, of being able to definitively say one way or the other.
You wanna see really serious weight retention issues?
Look up Eugenia Cooney.
Uh, depending on your constitution, NSFW/NSFL tag on the above suggestion, I guess.
Yeah, I’m not even gonna post an image here, many pictures of her, that she publishes herself… yeah… thats what really serious anorexia looks like.

I think other comments missed that the model is actually trans, thus making the post ironic or the typical dumbass. And I know that she wanted to distance herself from her transness as stated in the Wikipedia article, but it’s relevant to the post here.

halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 19 hours ago
Knowing absolutely nothing about the model… My first thought was that she was trans. Because the dipshits run into that all the time.
They make no effort to actually understand anything and just live off vibes and beliefs with no factual basis whatsoever. Not doing a basic Google search to look up the model and verify before posting like an idiot is par for the course.
fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 hours ago
Apparently the post isn’t from a dipshit, it’s a sarcastic post to bait dipshits.

This is why many of them hate trans and or gays, they are attracted then realize it. Maybe still are attracted after knowing.
Clearly their influencers are using them as a scapegoat of sorts. Otherizing them in bad faith anyway idk what you could call that not scagegoating perhaps.
SeptugenarianSenate@leminal.space 13 hours ago
it’s like a bait and switch where homophobia is tantamount to one’s internal sense of masculine heterosexuality, and the “trickster” to them in this instance has, in their always-active woman-objectifying-minds, discretely, but almost certainly malevolently, switched genders with the express purpose of trying to convince the particular male in question to consider the one thing that makes them more furious than any injustice they have ever experienced: human’s capacity for the desire for anal insertion. it’s like their sphincter is their sacred sanctuary, and they have yet to become comfortable in their own body or mind yet, so the intense jealousy, coupled with fear of crossing the framework of taboo that they have been imbued with and accepted for themselves, is what is likely leading to the unpredictable but always neurotically aggressive reactions to such a “reveal” for this type of child-man, who has become over-sexualized-by-media-or-family, yet undereducated in core values, and with likely maladaptive internal principles/ideals to fill their place in order to protect their flimsy senses of self-worth that they continue to measure by simple means rather than sustainable, comprehensible, inclusive, or materially useful metrics of acceptance or self-recognition/acceptance.
