Somewhat off-topic, but the juxtaposition is too priceless not to re-blog.
Best thing I’ve seen in a while.
Oh, this one’s a classic. If embryos are babies, why is there not a picture of an embryo on your billboard? Oh, because they aren’t babies. Right.

PLUS Model Magazine, a publication celebrating the plus-size fashion industry, recently printed some revealing statistics about the models that exhibit our clothes, sell our products, and generally define female beauty. The highlights:
- Twenty years ago, the average model weighed 8% less than the average woman; today, she weighs 23% less.
- Most models meet the Body Mass Index physical criteria for anorexia.
- When the plus-size modeling industry began, the models ranged in size from 14 to 20; today, they average between a size 6 and 14.
- Half of American women wear a size 14 or larger, but most standard clothing outlets cater to sizes 14 or smaller.
