Axe: Skinny horny women want you. You stud.
Kinda contradictory adverts, neh?
And I don't think Dove ever said that they were campainging for "fat women," just women of varying healthy shapes and sizes.

No it's knowing your demographic.
Play to the perceived insecurities of the women who would use a "firming" cream. Play to the pre-pubescent fantasies of the average male to get them to use a product they likely would not normally.
Personally I'm looking for the Axe Boby spray that will make the women in the dove ad go crazy.
