In its argument before it begins, the petition states that the show will "cause eating disorders." It also states that the trailer has already triggered people who actively suffer from them. That sentiment has been echoed on social media such as Twitter.
請願活動開始前的一份聲明指出,該劇「將導致飲食失調」,且該預告片已經引起了一些人主動節食。對該劇的抵制情緒在推特等社交媒體上持續發酵。
「The toxicity of this series is bigger than just this one particular series,」 Florence Given, who started the petition, wrote. 「This is not an isolated case, but part of a much larger problem that I can promise you every single woman has faced in her life, sitting somewhere on the scale of valuing their worth on their bodies, to be desirable objects for the male gaze. That is exactly what this series does」.
「這部劇的危害遠大於這部劇本身,」請願發起人Florence Given寫道,「它並不是個案,而是更大問題的冰山一角,我保證每位女性都曾在生活中遇到這個問題:她們在一個通過身體來衡量價值的體系當中,成為男性凝視的理想對象。這就是這部劇所展現的價值觀。」
