PETA has yet again stirred up controversy with another one of its in your face advertisements promoting animal rights. The advertisement promotes vegetarianism by saying "Save the Whales, go vegetarian" and shows the back of a rotund woman wearing a bikini. Making fun of a person who is obese isn't the best way to deal with obesity. Also, using obesity as a way to promote vegetarianism just seems stupid. PETA shouldn't be that malicious toward people with weight problems just so they can get their point across. It's not really about PETA telling people that going vegetarian as a way of combating their obesity problem( even though it's not really meat eating that is a major reason for most cases of obesity), but it's that they promoted the message in a despicable way. PETA has always cared a lot more about animals and not about humans, which is kind of strange because in biology humans are part of the animals. PETA did not get the vegetarian point across very well in my opinion because too many people were angered by the billboard that showed the vegetarian promotion.
