Victoria's Secret has signed its first ever transgender model less than a year after an executive at the lingerie firm was criticized for making alleged transphobic remarks. Brazilian cover girl Valentina Sampaio, 22, made the announcement on her Instagram page Thursday night and posted behind-the-scenes photos of her photoshoot for Victoria Secret's Pink lingerie line. 'Backstage click,' Sampaio wrote in the caption of one photo. 'Never stop dreaming [people],' read another post, which included the hashtag '#diversity'.

Victoria’s Secret is failing not because they don’t dress men into lingerie, it is because women figured out that paying $40 for a panty is way too much when Amazon has the same thing for $3.99 shipped.
They priced themselves out of their own market.
This is just the last throes of a company going bankrupt

Great way to kill a company. Bye VS.
Nobody wants to associate sexy lingerie with a penis - or someone who cut his off.
Disgusting.

Just a thought on this. Victoria Secrets has a largely unpublicized problem where people will come into the store and actually try on their wares unprotected, leaving whatever interesting afflictions or malodies behind when they do not purchase the item. It is also well known but unpublicized that people will purchase an item, wear it at home for an...event and then return said item soiled the following day or so. They may have corrected some of these issues since I heard of it and had it verified by a long term friend who worked and modeled there, but who really knows?
Now enter the savagely afflicted mentally ill trannies... have fun shopping, kids!

I thought the tranny market was supplied underground via the assorted smash and grab type robberies that occasionally happen to lingerie shops.

This is "Valentina":

I read yesterday that the prior editors of Playboy are bringing it back but it will be “woke”.
I’m sure that means trans and maybe even young trans like that poor freak of a kid, Desmond.

Kinda makes sense. Trannies have to buy their gear from somewhere. Supply and demand.

Just because a lot of people believe something, that doesnt make it true.
It is a personality disorder. Political correctness will destroy our civilization if we let the Left redefine anything/everything.
