Spain’s government is encouraging plus-size and older women to visit the beach this summer, prompting accusations that it is patronising the public.
The Left-wing government launched a summer advertising campaign, featuring a topless woman who has had a mastectomy, with the taglines: “all bodies are beach bodies” and “summer is ours too.”
But the advert showing five women of varying shapes and sizes lounging on the sand has sparked accusations that it is patronising women who have never felt unable to visit the beach in the hot summer months.
