‘Protein World’s ‘Middle Finger’ To Beach Body Campaigners Appears in NYC
Like something out of sci-fi classic Attack Of The 50 Foot Woman, today an unsuspecting New York woke up to find a giant Protein World ad towering above the city’s Times Square neighbourhood.
The now infamous, “Are you beach body ready?” ad – that provoked outrage amongst the easily-offended in London last month – is back; only this time it’s bolder and as big as a skyscraper at 42nd Street between 7th and 8th Avenues.
Three days ahead of its expected launch on Monday, in the early hours of this morning a picture of the ad was tweeted by its star, Australian supermodel with the teasing message: “What’s up Times Square”.
Below the ad, on the busy streets of Times Square, crowds of outraged Social Justice Warriors dropped their soya bean frappucinos – and beat a path to social media to begin another foam-flecked SJW crusade for “body-shaming justice”.
The company’s outspoken marketing boss Richard Staveley told Breitbart London: “It’s a big middle finger to everybody who bothered to sign that stupid petition in the UK. It’s a fat F-U to them all. You could say that the London protestors helped pay for the New York campaign”.
Staveley is referring to the 71,000 protestors who signed a petition that attempted to take down the London ad creative from the Tube. The company claimed the furore helped boost sales by £2million with 30,000 extra customers in two weeks…’
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

It doesn’t bother me at all,does that make me a sexist pig?
If so, you have a lot of company.
For God’s sake, America has more important shit to worry about.
If Americans don’t wake up there won’t be any ads like this ever again or for stuff like alcohol, tampons or bacon burgers – the muslims will see to that.
I guess the gripers are Jenny Craig aficionados who wear clinging tops over muffin tops that spill out of jeans. People have to realise that that woman has probably worked out every day, to within an inch of her life and that’s why she looks good. There is no knock-out figure without the work-outs – they are jealous.
It’s a fact of life that some are more blessed with looks, figure and talent than the rest of us. Wouldn’t it be better to concentrate on making the best of themselves with flattering clothes or working out? Now there’s a thought!
Anyway, age comes to us all – she won’t look like that forever, and for most of us that means that with age must also come more modesty so we don’t look ridiculous.
” People have to realise that that woman has probably worked out every day, to within an inch of her life and that’s why she looks good. There is no knock-out figure without the work-outs – they are jealous.”
Exactly.
Woman is blessed with good looks.
Works hard to maximise them.
Gets paid a lot of money as a clothes horse
Men are to blame.
That’s why I find it silly that as a man I’m not supposed to compliment a woman on her looks.It is a lot of hard work and they should know we admire them for it.Even if a gal isn’t a supermodel if she goes the extra mile to look good and keep fit she should get credit for it.
‘That’s why I find it silly that as a man I’m not supposed to compliment a woman on her looks.’
This can be a thorny one particularly in the work place. Some fairly neutral comments might be along the lines of:
The cut of that dress/jacket/suit/colour of your outfit/really compliments you.
That’s a knock-out ensemble and it’s obvious you’re no stranger to a gym.
Look, I know my husband notices other women the same as I notice other men but I think it’s the degree to which the noticing goes on. Most older men are smart enough to wait until you go to the ladies as they find it harder to hide whereas women who have more acute peripheral vision can size someone up in a more subtle fashion.
I don’t mind if my husband says “that’s an attractive woman” or “she’s a rock chick” because to most she clearly would be and it would be disingenuous to say otherwise. If he were to say she was sexy then that would be less acceptable simply because of the word sex which could imply desire and maybe the wish to do something about it. In the same way I would never refer to a man as sexy to my husband because he might think “she’s cracking on to him.”
Our elder statesman at work, who sadly retired last year at the age of 77 seemed to have the knack of complimenting women at work without being too overt and he was a snappy dresser. I told him he always looked like he’d stepped out of a band box. He still had it going on at the age of 77 and will to his dying day
“This can be a thorny one particularly in the work place.”
It really shouldn’t be,unless it’s something sexual.What used to be ordinary simple compliments like “Your looking smart today” is now considered sexist by the feminazi brigade.
Good grief, I would take that to mean I knew how to dress for my position at work and took pride in my appearance.
I get comments from time to time like that at work from a male colleague and take them at face value. If he means anything else my radar isn’t picking it up. Similarly if I see him wearing new shoes or shirt I notice and say something and ask where he got them from etc .
Ah yes, but you’re a sensible, sane woman, G P, not one of the shrieking perpetually offended brigade. My wife could have written what you just have.
She says it’s nice to know there are some other women who think that way.
I love it when those dumb f@#*$ get their noses rubbed in their own stupidity: ” The company claimed the furore helped boost sales by £2million with 30,000 extra customers in two weeks…’”
I’m phoney facebook “friends” with a couple of models and as GP said they deserve every penny.
