First of all, those legs! Va Va VOOM!!!
but really, it is a cute depiction, a creative way to accomplish the appearance of women's legs without actually showing women's legs.
The fat shaming and body focus is a bit harsh. There is nothing wrong with working out, fitness, and being healthy, but the focus here is slimming down to find a good shidduch, not workout to be healthy.
I like the bottom note - attractive group rates. Isnt the point of this so they will become attractive but right now these groups of young women are not attractive, growing in all the wrong ways, which is why they should work out?
Just a weird ad

Interesting IIUC the shidduch world in practice is not as accepting of the concept that size doesn't matter as corporate America is.
