"Again, you are picking examples with very subtle distinctions. However, I would say swimsuit models and Victoria Secret models main job are to sell swimsuits and lingerie. Not sell sexual feelings which are meant to produce a loving relationship that produces children."
What in the world do you think those swimsuits and lingerie are for? Those ads are designed to arouse those feelings so you will buy those products which themselves are designed with a similar purpose. Those same models from VS and SI are often partially nude on the runways for many regular fashion shows for the same reason. The only difference between them and strippers is the amount of money.

I would say Victoria Secret models are selling clothes to strenghten or produce marriages.
The swimsuit models are selling swimsuits, but are used to sell sex in the SI example.
