Victoria’s Secret Under Fire for Lack of Diversity in #WhatIsSexy Campaign
Breitbart ^ | 4-18-2017 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 04/18/2017 7:11:06 AM PDT by brucedickinson

The California-based brand revealed its honorees, many of whom were white and skinny. And it didn’t take long for social media users to accuse Victoria’s Secret’s of failing to include women of other ethnicities in its campaign.

“Young, white and thin is what’s sexy according to VS. Where’s the racial diversity? Where’s the size diversity….” one Twitter user wrote.

To heck with diversity. Every body type and color does not have to be represented in every aspect of society.


Well, to the idiots who bitch about this kind of stuff, they do expect every possible type to be represented in all ways.

We live in a world where Ellen DeGeneres is considered a "Covergirl" model.

White lefties love diversity so much, don’t they? That is, until it affects them directly. If you put low income housing right next door to a rich liberal white enclave then you’ll hear these people say things about minorities that would make you think they were part of the Klan.

I don’t get it. I understand that Ellen is “lesbian”, but I don’t get how she’s a cover girl model. Reason being, she goes out of her way to have a mannish appearance.

Why would there be some reason to say that a woman’s beauty includes wanting to appear to be a man?

Remember the Munsters show of the sixties where the pretty blond girl is shamed and even hidden as “unattractive”? We’re now living that world. Thanks, liberals.

They are sick neurotics, rather than clowns. The "useful idiots" of the hard-core Left, have always been very mixed up, but clearly compulsion driven zealots.

No rational person--except as satire--would suggest a clothing retailer hire models whose appearance would be offensive or unattractive to the expected clientele. The posters attacking Victoria's Secret are either attempting satire, or are simply over the line in pushing the "diversity" foolishness.

I would, of course, agree that "diversity" is as beneficial among lingerie models, catering to a particular look, as it is in elementary schools & small town neighborhoods.

Yeah, guessing the shots of the late Helen Thomas and Madeline Albright in thongs didn’t make the cut, either.

My apologies if that mental imagery caused you to coat your computer screen with coffee (or whatever beverage you were drinking at the time)

It's now wrong for a business to cater to a niche group?

They need to go after the clothing companies that cater to the larger folks too.....

I mean, that’s a woman pushing 60. Ellen was a very pretty young woman. Not sexy, but easily pretty.

I sure didn't need to see that picture!

What does diversity have to do with it. Ugly is out. That is universal.
