Ikr? This might be a solution if the images and culture that goes with them weren't so goddamn pervasive, but it is. Frankly, companies like Dove that campaign against it are admirable, but even the amount of backlash that they get for doing things like that (MAD magazine ran a parody a few years ago complaining about the "lumpy half-naked women" in Dove commercials) shows that our collective consciousness has absorbed what these people are selling, and considering that it's literally everywhere it's not really surprising.
