A Walmart customer has furiously slammed the retail giant for placing a range of bras and panties that were seemingly being marketed at young girls next to the men's clothing section in her local store.
Sasha Piton of Idaho Falls, Idaho, took to TikTok to rant about the awkward positioning of two clothing sections, further noting that these 'bras and panties' were also easily visible from the megastore's grocery department.
After stating she'd come to Walmart to look for a bralette she'd seen on a different visit, Sasha, who goes by @thesashapiton on the platform, couldn't help but notice the odd product proximities.
'Here's the food section; here's the men's section. Why are panties and bras right by the food and the men's section?' she implored in the 48-second video.
'I don't care. I'm a grown woman,' she further declared.
'But I think if you are a teenager who wants to look at these fun, cute, totally colored panties, why do you have to do it next to the men's section or next to the food section?
'For girls between the ages of eight and 18 should totally get to shop their bras and panties in private,' she continued.
'And I get, I get it's a big old store. But I just don't think that these cute little panties should be right across from the men's section.
'These are definitely like more geared for teenagers but still - just come on. Come on!' she concluded.

Well I’d buy my knickers at K Mart but it’s because of Wal Mart that store no longer exists.
Well Wal mart could have better class about them. Then maybe we would not have websites called “people of wal mart”
Put the women’s underwear in Automotive then, and that makes it gender and food neutral.
I’m going to Walmart tomorrow to recon this situation for myself.
I never noticed, but the only thing I ever go there for is oil and oil filters.
And wiper blades.
What’s a girl? Why are underwear different?
sigh... First World problems!
I think the issue is a teenage girl shopping for underwear near the spot where some hillbilly is grabbing a case of coors light. Men tend to be inappropriate in certain situations. It’s probably best to give girls some privacy.
Maybe putting panties and bras next to hunting section would be more fun.
I was thinking they would be more effective near the book/magazine section...
It’s aisle….not isle .
……
I thought that’s where they stocked the edible undies.
The men’s section at Walmart is one-third the size of the ladies’s section. It isn’t fair. But I would not go on social media to bitch about it.
Wait a sec…is FR “social media”?
Good point :)
Ive seen women shopping for undergarments before. So what? Like most things they do, its very uninteresting. I’m doing MY shopping.
She has a point.
Any thinking corporate marketing manager would instruct the store managers to place the young girl’s underwear near the ladies similar products. Just as those items have been placed in the past. Who made the decision to move them? It’s obvious that placing such items in the open area near groceries, or adjacent to men’s clothing is a deliberate ploy.
It seems that in almost every institution, the plan is to place young girls and boys in close proximity to adults who are interested in sexually preying on young children. I think it is a ploy to normalize sex with minors much as the same as calling pedophilia simply “Minor attracted persons”.
My Church had a drive for boys & girls underwear to send to a village somewhere if Kenya.
Our Church news letter posted a pic of all the kids and teenagers of the village holding up the underwear each received…amusing and awkward at the same time.
I USED to enjoy all the babes in lingerie ad photos in the women’s departments. Then they went woke and hired all hippo-sized models at least twice as big as the former babes.
Now I just avert my eyes and speed by as fast as I can. I’m afraid if I lift my gaze and look back I’ll become a pillar of salt.
“If you’re buying your undies at Walmart, you don’t care who sees you.”
There’s a country tune in that thought.
