Veet posts sexist ad on facebook, hears about it.

The ad shows snow white baring a natural leg and the shocked and disgusted reactions of dwarves and forest creatures.

Even women who prefer bare legs are pissed off at the notion that they should be expected to do it for the benefit of others. They've definitely lost some customers.

Bonus: less of a market for that nasty chemically junk.

How asinine. More "snow white and the seven dwarves" porn

This is why I love this picture

Is so thick there's probably a lost tribe of people living in it if someone wants to have hair let them it's their prerogative

I don't get it. I mean, if I was selling waxing or laser services I would... but I just don't have a preference. I like natural. Naturally smooth, naturally furry... It's the attitude I like. Investing a lot of time and money in trying to look sexy is an unattractive habit to me.
