Dove's 'Real Beauty' Post Provokes Real Discussion

Posted by anastasia on 08-11-2005

I plan to add a new feature that will show the most recent comments on Ypulse in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, I wanted to point out that there are some very thought provoking comments on the post about Dove's "Real Beauty" campaign — from Catherine, who is disappointed Dove didn't choose larger women; Deepthi, who feels the "slightly grotesque caricatures of professional model poses" contradict the message of "Real Bauty"; to a dermatologist, who says Dove can't help your cellulite problems and Mark, who seems to find these funloving, sensual women quite attractive. Love it or hate it, Dove has succeeded and provoking a much needed conversation about women and body image.
