Earlier this week, UK company Protein World released a not-at-all-surprising, but nevertheless disappointing campaign asking women if they were “beach body ready”.
The campaign was widely criticised by women around the world for what they said was body shaming.
Now, an online swimwear retailer has responded in a far less icky and much more inclusive way — by asking: “are you ready for THIS beach body?”

Is this really morally superior to the original add in how women are portrayed or is it a marketing ploy designed to piggyback on someone else's advertisement and using the moral high ground as justification to make sales?.
By the way, I think both women look lovely, the cynical side of me thought it was a fair question though.
