Do they really want me to buy from them?

I'm probably overly sensitive about my size but looking for plus size leggings I do have to wonder what on earth this seller was thinking when they had a thin person "model" their leggings (or, should I say, model half a pair of leggings?).

 

New Womens Full Length Leggings Plus Plus Plus Plus Size

 

As I said, maybe I am overly sensitive BUT do they really think that is the way to market plus size clothing to fat people?

how about "you don't have to go to the beach to wear thongs"?

 

 

or "you don't have to live on the Gold Coast to wear thongs"

 

"thongs approved by Greenpeace"?

 

"A crack den that not even the police will investigate"


Some people can go their whole lives and never really live for a single minute.

I hate the listings that state " I have lost so much weight no longer fits".

 

I have to agree that true or not it is a silly marketing strategy, much better to say that you put on weight and so they no longer fit then the buyer can feel a sense of superiority.

 

I still haven't decided how I am going to market the pair of size 6X thong knickers I was sent with some samples Smiley LOL


You could put 2 young slender women with nice backsides in them (onr in each leg) and somehow market it as the latest craze of thong sharing.
