Girls and women suffer far too much from body image issues.
There are bodies of all types represented on this forum and some of the women here would not describe themselves as either "buff' or skinny but I know they're incredible athletes.
Showing real women and real bodies (like in the Dove ads)would be more inspiring.
Images like this inspire more self-loathing than encouragement.
