I suppose

I suppose it's the reference to cosmetic surgery that upset someone. I am offended by suggestions that cosmetic surgery is necessary in order for a person (usually female) to be seen as good enough. Personally, I don't get that from this poster, and in fact it intrigues me as to what that image will have to do with the production. As this is an all-female company, I am doubly intrigued. Their publicity (& the free extra publicity due to - yes, once again! the controversy) is paying off already :-) Looking fwd to seeing it!
