bit of a SJW backfire, they have inadvertantly spiked a 2 million increase in sales after there moaning. Seems some women like the choice to be able to tone up their own bodies. Others of course want to ban their right to do so.

    All these feminist/equality threads are getting a bit too much, even for me (and that is saying something). Take cover before you're trampled under the imminent stampede of Birkenstocks! :)

    tee hee. They re not here so can get a few good points in and made before the usual refusal to debate, personal attacks "woman hater" insults, white knighting deliberately not understanding etc start. Free pass!

    Bomb threats over a picture of a woman in a bikini? Feminism is dangerous.

    its not feminists (they obviously make good points and do good work). This is SJW. hiding under the umbrella of feminism (and ruining it) often found infiltrating other good causes too. Just shining a light on them.

    Seriously, bomb threats. Take a look at yourselves.

    But showing an attractive women with a toned body might hurt a fat feminist's feelings, therefore it is now haram. Didn't you get the fatwa?

    I saw this on twitter last week.

    They were going nuts.

    Apparently companies should only be allowed to use frumpy non-attractive women in their advertising...

    Fitness products have been using scantily clad, fit men and women to sell their products for years, it isn't something new.

    They may have done it themselves of course - get a few complaints then ramp it up yourself... bang... loads of free publicity.

    you dont think there are SJWs out there who would behave like this? You can search for less likely answers but i think you would be barking up the wrong tree.

    Do you condemn the bomb threats?

    a) I don't believe a word of it.
    b) someone really will have to tell me in what way buying worthless 'fat melter' tablets is 'getting off your arse and doing something about it.'

    I have no idea - I merely raised the possibility that they stirred the pot themselves - hardly unknown.

    I shall treat your last sentence with the contempt it deserves.

    It is possible that they egged the pudding. Can't really comment about the bomb threat as there is no detail in the story.. just a sub-heading. Surprising as you would have thought that would be given more emphasis. Maybe another paper will have more. I will take a look.
