Retailers like Walmart and Target have come under fire for the insensitive ways they have marketed to plus-size customers, but this Asian website really took it to another level.

 The advertisement shared on Reddit was posted on Ali Express and is for a pair of poly-blend leggings, which features a product photo of a thin woman fitting her entire body in one leg. Other questionable photos on the site show women stretching out the waistband of different pants as far as it can go to show how large they are. 

Needless to say, this is an extremely offensive way to cater to plus-size women, especially since the already feature a perfectly acceptable image of a single woman sporting the products on the site.
