Now I want to know if people riding the subway in Boston are seeing giant, curvy women in their underpants on the walls of all the MBTA stations... If not, they _should_!
I thought it was saying 'real' because they weren't starving themselves and were not actually models for a living, and not necessarily because they were curvy, myself.
However, yes - the trend you are noting is certainly one I've seen often enough.
Phrases like "real women have real curves" rather make me tend to think that the curves is what determines the reaness. (Gee, can you tell this is a button of mine? :) )

And I have no useful reply, because advertizing is, in it's core, about generalizations.
