Seriously, do we need body wash to clean our bodies (exactly what says on the tin) or do we need it to remind ourselves of the constant scrutiny and categorisation of those bodies?

You're right Bloomed it is totally fascinating.

Basically they landed on a completely wrong-minded idea about a decade ago, and they're still grimly clinging on, desperate to wrest every last bit of meat from the bones of it.

It's utterly shit, demeaning, bollocks.

Come on, ladies! We're being empowered! We're being taught to love our bodies -just not to the point where we get cocky and think we don't need to spend a fortune on making ourselves beautiful.

I wonder if 'Apple' shaped bodies need a different formula body wash to 'hour glass?

I am fascinated by how misguided Dove campaigns are.

Oh dear. I think this quote from a Twitter user in response sums up how I feel about this:

"Women don’t need to be categorized all the time.”
