Victoria's Secret's "Perfect Body" ad campaign has come under fire, as critics claim it sends an unhealthy and damaging message to women.

Critics say the problem is what's written across the bodies of the tall, thin models: "The Perfect Body."

The lingerie company says it refers to its "Body by Victoria" line, and is not commenting otherwise.

But some say it's hard not to catch a double meaning.
