What the petition asks

Love Island is lowering young adults self-esteem and self-confidence, they think they look bad, they become depressed, because they see that they cant be like those in the show. Of those watching 20% are obese, and 1 in 3 of those are ashamed of their bodies.
Referred to various sources.

An article by The Guardian supports the latter:
