Victoria's Secret: Using Sex (and Hope) to Sell...

OMG that guys is a genius !! did he write his text himself ?

<_<

I notice that you were searching for ''sex''

I was just curious about what they had.

That was 3.5 minutes I'll never get back. But, seriously, where does he get the idea that "most women are offended" by Victoria's Secret? Maybe I hang out with more progressive women, but that statement doesn't fit with my observations.

His theory is surely applicable to all clothing and cosmetics brands, not just VS. I've never seen an ad with an ugly model or an "everywoman" type of person.

Well, that depends on your standard of beauty. I've seen models in ads that I thought were ugly.

I was just curious about what they had.

Yeah.. that's what we all said when we were 13 and catched by our parents while searching for porn..

''Mom.. I was just curious!''

so you've never seen any ads for Dove, have you ? lol

To me, commercials is entertainment.

Not education.

VS ads should remain as "poor man's Playboy", not some crappy feminist agenda that tell girls that they can look beautiful in all shapes and sizes.

You're probably right, but regardless, I agree with his overall conclusion; Victoria's Secret makes money on the promise of sex.

I don't think it's a bad thing.
