Summer of Dove

Eventually, the Dove debate will end, and the media can go back to analyzing actress Lindsay Lohan's weight fluctuations or Angelina Jolie's love life. In the meantime, whether or not Dove eventually succeeds in changing female body image, we can only hope that the scrutiny and harsh words don't daunt the lovely Dove ladies. Otherwise we might be spending next summer talking about TRIMSPA or Slim-Fast diet ads featuring a Dove model who decided that maybe being "real" and in the public eye isn't that much fun after all.
