I hardly see those women as "average" or "plus size" women. While it's nice to see companies moving in that direction they are still a long way from the mark. All those women have flat stomaches, curves in all the right places, etc etc. None of them are overweight. As far as I'm concerned they still have a ways to go.
I agree. While it's a step in the right direction ... at least those women don't look anorexic ... they are by NO MEANS "plus-sized." Those women are certainly smaller then the "average" American women. And I find it pitiful that smaller-than-average women are considered "plus-sized" because they are not a size 2.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
