I'm sorry, but that's not how trigger warnings work. There are a lot of ways to talk about a subject, and trigger warnings acknowledge and respect that they are going to get graphic, specific, and/or descriptive. I have a sexual assault trigger, but I am also interested in rape in legislation, social movements, and…

Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

Yep, sorry, I missed 'Pink' in there - when I said we had those three stores, I meant VS, La Senza, and La Vie en Rose. Never found it exactly revolutionary for sizing - all seem to have the standard A-DD or DDD, 32-38 or 40. My original argument was that Victoria's Secret fits the same range (and a bit more) than…

London, a couple of hours from Toronto and a major city in Ontario. Never heard of those stores - there might be one very expensive lingerie store, but beyond that just the first three you listed. And department stores. Haven't heard of the others!

Maybe you can help clear something up for me, then.

Good point. And the article says that she's being asked to pay back the 6 grand meant for her final semester, meaning they must have given her the full year's amount up front and she was theoretically supposed to save it to pay tuition, which it sounds like she didn't. This is awkward because of the situation, but…

Isn't this what the 'greys' are for? How did you get into the legitimate comment section?

Jesus Christ, you are brave. Thank you. :)

Nope, nope, disengaging!

Thank you! I was getting really uncomfortable with some posts on here, hah.

In their advertisements, they do - but this narrow idea of sexy isn't translated to what they offer in the store.

Thank you! I was just saying this in another thread. The complaints that they don't fit weird body sizes are universal to all stores, really, not specifically VS, and comparing Victoria's Secret to Abercrombie and Fitch is just not fair.

This thread is making weird (to me) generalizations about VS that, again, doesn't really fit what this article is about.

This actually isn't about the products. While the author does quickly refer to the clothing design, most of the article is about advertisements. These protesters aren't demanding different clothes, they're protesting the models wearing those clothes in their ads. They aren't demanding they sell or make different…

All I can think about is what this Rickiest Rick's face would be like if he read the phrase "balls deep in God".

Well said! Thank you for answering. I really couldn't after reading so, so, so many similar posts in this thread by this person, with logical responses completely ignored.

I'm so, so sorry for what happened to your thread, and I have a Jez crush on you for how AWESOME your responses are!

Beautifully said. Thank you for brightening up this depressing (but morbidly fascinating) thread.

I think (s)he is somehow assuming that a mother can or should be able to forfeit a child's rights on his/her behalf. Which (s)he has not addressed. Because that's just f*cking bizarre and very difficult to defend.

Agreed! Thank you.
