Hong Kong (CNN Business) A supermarket chain in China has apologized for apparently featuring a chart in one of its stores that used disparaging language to refer to women who wear larger-sized clothes as "rotten" and "terrible." The sign was labeled as a "suggested women's sizing chart," and laid out the different heights and weights associated with clothing sizes. Each size also included an adjective used to describe it: Small sizes were "skinny" and medium sizes were "beautiful," while large sizes were "rotten" or "terrible" and XXL sizes were "extremely terrible." The sizing guide was intended for women between ages 18 and 35, according to the sign. CNN Business has not independently verified the photo and it isn't clear which store featured the controversial sizing chart.
