Male or female, it's not something that should be being endorsed.

The fact that saying this is apparently fatshaming these days is absolutely crazy to me.

I hold nothing personal against the woman who won the competition, if anything I do feel sorry for her, she's being encouraged to slowly kill herself.

Exactly
And I'm not a fan of beauty pageants to begin with, yeah people might the whole premise is shallow and superficial,but that's what these competitions are all about. Beauty & health sells .

It's no different to when pretty models are advertising brands on TV . Imagine if Chris Hemsworth got replaced on the Hugo Boss ad for some obese Austin
powers character,I don't think it would have the same effect with audiences.

Whether people like to admit it or not ,we prefer to look at athletic sexy attractive people as it's more visually appealing.

I don't like child pageants either ,but that isn't really the topic of conversation here.

And I never said plus size models/ actors don't get used in advertising,but it all depends on the product . Your example is of always pads ,not exactly advertising perfume or something with sex appeal .

Besides the obvious reason, I would wonder why anybody would want a child beauty pageant to exist.

True on all points in my view.

Don't get me wrong though, I don't want say a singing competition to be all about people's looks (although it never hurts to have at least one attractive man, and one attractive woman for ratings,) but overall looks is not my priority on a Show like American Idol or The Voice.

It's all about what the product is about for me, because like you've said yourself, Hugo Boss Adverts need to have attractive men on the products that they're trying to sell to men, because psychologically a lot of guys will try it in the hopes of attracting women like Chris Hemsworth does in general.
