First of all you are selecting an advertisement to depict "what men and women are supposed to look like".
The fact that it is an advertisement says it all. Women became tired of the skin and bones victoria secret Models and such. We protested it. So now things have finally changed.
Such advertisement are geared to sell to women.
Now as far as clothing for men and their advertisement we women HAVE nothing to do with it! If men have a problem with all the men in those pictures looking like Photoshopped steroid gym junkies then men should complain about it. Those images are gear to sell to men not women. So clearly the industry believes they can sell more clothing to men if they use unrealistic models. So the way I see it men don't care, they have no desire to fight or boycott the industry or perhaps it works. Either way it has nothing to do with what women think.
Now who says women all claim men need to adhere to a standard? Where is this written? Are you perfaps refering to the few girls out there who desire unrealistic ken doll/gi joe playmates? Whatever its absolute nonsense! There no standard anything. People come in all shapes and sizes. Its just as insane to desire perfection as it is to say that every demands it.
Now as I just sated on another postAs far as men go I do not have a body type. AND ITS A HUGE PET PEEVE of mine when people try to say a man has to meet certain standards. I believe it erks me more when its men putting themselves down. I love a man to dress well smell AMAZING and be intellectually appealing. I have dated all types of men including one man Who weighed over 300 pounds to a man who was aiming to become Mr Connecticut (body building). so basically I've dated skinny thick fat average and muscular. They've been short 5'3, the average height 5'7 and my tallest height was 6'1. Amongst these men's they had several different sizes in penises from micro (about the length and width of my thumb) to 10 in. I do not have an exact attraction box when it comes to men What I will say is I'm quite a sucker for knowledge and skillfulness. Show me your mind and share with me your talents! Now add a GREAT SEXY SCENT and a man who takes pride in his appearance, his manner of dressing grooms himself well keeps himself clean... And Im seeing hearts.
With sleepwear and lingerie.
Those are catered towards women (i don't know anything about men's underwear)
Their goal is to make us buy their shit so having models of girls wearing certain bras, panties helps those with the same body type become more confident in buying it.
More money for them. More stuff for us.
I don't know shit about men's clothes, sizing, ads but if that is an issue you can state your concerns and make your voice heard just like a lot of women did.
With beauty standards, I'm biased. Growing up, it was okay for guys to be fat or chunky. If a girl was fat she would get made fun of or seen as "disgusting". Girls have to be skinny/slim and if you weren't you'd get picked at. Guys can be chunky, go outside with their shirt off, but god forbid a chunky/average girl w/o a model body go out in a bikini.
Guys would be picked at for having a chunky girlfriend ("chubby chaser"), but it was no problem if a girl was dating a chubby guy.
Not saying big guys never get made fun of, but in my experience we were judged and criticized more in the looks department for not being slim/skinny/curvy.
& Everyone has preferences. Nothing wrong with that.
Women are used to men desiring and pursuing them and for men to do that, they have to be attractive, which requires some level of effort generally, but when a man puts his foot down and says no, because she's too fat, old, etc, women don't like it, even though a man's standards are often times far more realistic and women's are often times more hypocritical.
Men expect too much from women. You wanna know why your expectations are ruining your chance of dating?
The idiot who wrote this deleted my answer as soon as I debunked it.
Remember the early 80's it was practically the same standards only the genders were flipped. The trends will continually change, so I say like what you like and don't buy into it all. I would advise being healthy though because that at least seems to be universal. Obese is not healthy in my opinion.

Not a direct answer to your question, but I'm here to speculate on the picture. Maybe it was made to appeal to women (message: you can be a model as long as you have our underwear!) and then to men (message: you'll look so strong in our underwear!). It is an interesting difference, and no doubt body positivity standards are way different. But my speculation on this ad is that it's based on how the company thinks their customers want to see themselves
Yes that female dominated clothing, fashion and advertising industryâŚ.
Hate to break it to you, the reason there are plus size models is because of women pushing against the advertising and fashion industry to be more realistic and as a move away from size zero.
never seen any guys pushing for changes in the fashion industry, plus size models etc.
I don't think we do. I don't look at advertisements for men's underwear and such as I know it's not targeting towards me and I'd never attract a man like that.
I'm realistic when it comes to my standards and I don't expect to be dating a movie star or model when I'm not one myself
I don't even know where to begin 🤦ââď¸
1.) EVERYONE has a standard for what is good, true and beautiful. The collective cultural practices and standards for all three are influenced by numerous multi-faceted factors.
2.) No two standards are the same across cultures and individuals.
3.) Not every girl wants a guy with abs and likewise not every guy wants a stick figure with large tits and a ass.
Because women are people, and people are hypocrites, across the board, at least about something. I feel like hypocrisy is a very universal human trait, but itâs frustrating to us when others do it, so, hypocritically, we call out others for it but justify within ourselves😂
As much as they try there will always be a beauty standard. I think it may have to do with women in general caring more about it. Most men generally would question brands doing it for men just as they do for women. So there is no point for the brand to do it if it may actually deter men.
A woman can lose weight more easily than I can grow taller! I also had two fat female coworkers, who were out of town for training, tell me I needed a Lexus when they couldnât fit comfortably in my three month old Saturn. I told them they need to find some with a Lexus to drive them to lunch the next day.
women's standards are toxic. not many people were born with the perfect metabolism rate, horglass, boobs, and butt. these things aren't changable.
men's standards are slightly less toxic. you have to work out. but you also have to hae the perfect height and a big dick, which aren't changable.
honestly, you have a point. but women have been body shamed for years so maybe that's why
Some people are hypocrites. Some guys want amazing looking women but won't put a lick of effort into themselves. I don't much since I hardly ever even leave the house anymore...
What woman says there shouldn't a beauty standard for women?
Women literally kill themselves to look sexy for men. What kind of logic is this?
Mediocre is accepted within women. Itâs not accepted within men
no. but i'd play with their big tiddies if i had to kill time
Because there is not as much social pressure for men to look good as there is to women. So magazines, trying to mitigate that disparity, make things like that.
Ikr some girls here r like whatâs your male type you like and itâs all athletic people which is fine
but then on like the tv I see people of all shapes especially women in like Nike adds etcâŚ..
When men buy underwear they aren't offended the model actually looks good. Stores actually lose money by not modeling what their female customers look like.
Because if women didn't have double standards then they'd have no standards at all.
because if girls didmt have double standards, they wouldn't have any standards at all
Most girls have double standards and are superficial..
I've seen fat dudes on clothing ads
In the real world it's BS
