So, I get their e-mails. I've bought things from them for years for my wife (no, frick off) and one of the things which was a draw to actually go to their page and shop was the fact that they featured incredibly hot women wearing lingerie. As a guy, this was helpful because it would make you more likely to buy something thinking that if you bought that for your woman, she'd look like that too... I've noticed a trend lately that they're featuring...well, not that.

And then I got this e-mail a little while ago that featured this...



Who is excited to click that link and buy their products based on these images? So...this is a woman thing, right? Sort of the way Target now features fat mannequins in the store for women and regular fit male mannequins because men aren't insane?

What happened to the good old day, fellas?

Look, when Victoria's Secret was made, it was made for Men to be able to shop for lingerie for their wives/gfs/mistresses and not be embarrassed. Now that women bitch about feeling excluded cause they aren't sexy, this is what you get.

They're probably just marketing to your past size 14 purchases.

I could understand if they want to use “normal girls” but I feel like they go out of their way to get ugly bitches now

I guess the whole L brands company had to go woke.

For one, one of their big target demographics is Millennials.

Second, woman in general are bigger. When my company does market analysis we always hear that woman want to see woman like them representing things they purchase.

Lastly, Wexner and L Brands is responsible for Epstein and all the rape and abuse that followed. Epstein was a school teacher at a wealthy school and then along came Billionaire Wexner who hired Epstein to manage his money and affairs with no experience. (Makes you wonder why?)

Epstein got rich and had access to commit his crimes thanks to Wexner and L Brands. I bet L Brands and its management are shitting bricks on the public blow back that could possibly happen from the Epstein fallout.

When you got that kind of stuff going on it helps to be a Woke company.

It doesn't appeal. FWIW They still do employ the same models as Sports Illustrated.

It is kind of ridiculous to look at their advertisements but then notice the male models in comparable fliers and store displays have six packs.
