sigh. victoria secret. now, seeing how you are in the feminist forum. i use to LOVE the company and buy all my stuff from them and have a blast. it was ALL about women and women embracing their sexuality when we hadnt had that in the past.

then, along came the 90's and something cutsey happened. it was no longer about the women. and the women lovin' on their sexuality. it was about marketing to men, and the men telling their women what THEY wanted having ALL to do with mens sexuality.

i walked from the company and will no longer give them my money.

next.....
