LOL - Yahoo News: the world is "turning against" Victoria's Secret

Will the fatties ever shut up about Victoria's Secret? The linked article illustrates the absurdity - Victoria's Secret is very successful financially, but the article contends "financial success isn't everything."
The article then contains the typical whining about how consumers really want VS to use fat models.
Models are picked for their looks and to create a fantasy. I don't look like one of the Calvin Klein models, but I don't run around saying they need an "old as frick male model with a pot belly."

Why not include plus-sizes? Currently Victoria’s Secret bras go up to 40 DDD, panties to XL, and swim in commensurate offerings. Meanwhile, Lane Bryant starts at those sizes! If VS could expand their customer base it would (most likely) not only increase sales but improve company perception, something the brand could use now more than ever. The “you can’t sit with us” act has got to be dropped and that tiara broken into a bunch of pieces and distributed to everyone. It’s time.

Here's the exact quote, Cpt:

Victoria’s Secret has yet to comment on the shifting attitude among women today. Sales are still strong, the Victoria’s Secret fashion show is still one of the most highly-watched televised events, and their bathing suit business is burgeoning (with a TV special of its own). But financial success isn’t everything.

And not a single pic needed to be posted because this is the 3rd or 4th thread on this.

First time I've seen it on here today.
You should probably get out more.

It's their own matters if they want to make a certain product, they are free to do it why these people do this I don't understand

First it's all the gay rights stuff shoved down our throats, is this the beginning of fat rights shoving..?

Victoria better stay the same and not try and get all PC... Girls love their stuff because guys think it's sexy.
