Disappointing from Modibodi

What are young women and older children going to think when they see these images...? Why not use images of art or nature if you want to be gender neutral? I suppose the marketing company thought they wanted to appeal to all possibilities but obviously to hell with women and what they might think.

I would imagine if you were a trans man these products would be really good as basically you can ignore your period and just wear and change the underwear. For me no more offensive than gratuitously breast enhanced women. So not my cup of tea but bound to appeal to some.

Sorry I meant it's a woman though so it's fine

It's a woman though

I would imagine that soon the upcoming generation will find all this to be desperately old hat and unfashionable, and companies will drop it like a hot stone.

It's (probably) not a naturally diverse body, it's (probably) a surgically and hormonally altered body. Not many young women and girls cultivate a moustache deliberately, or are able to even if they wanted to.

At least that's a woman, even if a gender nonconforming one, who actually has a possibility of menstruating. The nonsense they churn out about tw menstrual cycles is much more annoying.

I'm not too fussed about this.

Because they're using models to represent more diverse bodies? I don't really see the problem with this to be honest.
If anything it's probably reassuring for those women and girls who don't fit in with more gendered images.
