The backlash to #A4waist has churned up some pretty excellent tweets though: via @sikorochkapic.twitter.com/GexcTffaGZ — Julia Macfarlane (@juliamacfarlane) March 17, 2016Worryingly, even government organisations are getting involved, verified police forces’ accounts posting photos of female employees holding A4 sheets bearing information on how to prevent identity theft. While the trend was dubbed a "fitness challenge" by People’s Daily, there has been a significant backlash on social, not surprisingly.
