No more HELLO BOMBSHELL

Instead, it’s now...

HELLO FEMALE EMPOWERMENT ICONS
quote:

The move, which was revealed on Wednesday in a New York Times article, is presented as an attempt to shed the company’s “dated” approach to selling underwear. It’s grounding its host of “angels” – supermodels in fantasy bras and exotic wings – and is putting forward a team of seven women to represent its new values.

quote:

“Today is not about selling the male sex fantasy. Rather, it is all about female empowerment.”

quote:

The so-called VS Collective includes US athlete and LGBT activist Megan Rapinoe, Chinese-American skier Eileen Gu, Swiss-American biracial plus-size model Paloma Elsesser and Indian entertainer and rights advocate Priyanka Chopra.

quote:

The goal is to “redefine” what is considered sexy, leave behind accusations of entrenched corporate “sexism, sizism and ageism” and hopefully reverse the trend of losing market share to other brands


HELLO SWEATPANTS
quote:

In addition to reinventing itself as a new culturally up-to-date retailer, Victoria’s Secret plans to address some of the long-standing issues with its stock, including providing more sizes and more comfortable clothes, according to the NYT.

Yes! Finally! I’ve always dreamt of multimillionaire soccer star Megan Rapinoe in lingerie, lecturing us about how oppressed she is. What a dream come true! ??

Victoria's Secret is listed as one of the most liberal corporations that there is...

My wife said yesterday, “The Angels are a man’s fantasy. That’s what they are selling to women. ‘You want to be a man’s fantasy? Buy our products!’ Apparently that’s not the message anymore and I’m not sure it’ll be good for the brand.”

Multi-billion dollar industry. Wonder if they'll change their name to Victor's Secret?

I'm not sure they realize who actually buys their products.

First they catered to the fat girls, now the dikes.

What could go wrong?

Any man who still believes women should hold prominent decision-making roles in our society should be sterilized.

You're probably being sarcastic, but many a truth are told in jest.

Lol, good luck with that. No matter how much gaslighting the fatty, blue hair types try, they're not going to convince real men that they're attractive.

And the political connection is that VS is owned by Les Wexner of Columbus Ohio. les was close personal friends with the late Jeffery Epstein.
