Wow. That's...offensive. And has me disgusted with it and myself.

I just hope I'm not any of y'all's Ugly Girlfriend. I mean, seeing as how I'm even fatter than what they use as examples of hideousness.

('sides, is it just me, or is the blonde in particular actually really cute??)

Really? Maybe the original human, but the image in that ad seems like it was photoshopped into the uncanny valley to me.

Except that you're beautiful, so you couldn't possibly be anyone's ugly anything, and ... I do not see the hideousness in any of the women pictured, either.

Social standards of "good looks" are the kind of fucked up that make my brain leak out my ears, and the fact that this is an approved ad? What. Just. What.
