My personal first rule of survival: Never have anything for a pet or a girlfriend whose butt you cannot kick in an emergency.

On Thursday night, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid were just some of the models who walked the catwalk in their lingerie for the 2018 Victoria's Secret show.
While Victoria's Secret has previously praised themselves for championing diversity by including models of different ethnicities. The brand has faced heavy criticism for their frankly archaic view, when it comes to both plus-size and transgender models.
In a time when the likes of Tess Holliday and Ashley Graham have graced the covers of Cosmopolitan and Vogue. And Giuliana Farfalla and Valentina Sampaio made history with their Playboy and Vogue covers, you would think that Victoria's Secret would want to move with the times.
However, in a new interview, Chief Marketing Officer, Ed Razek, has revealed why the brand refuse to cast transgender and plus-size models in their shows.
In an interview with Vogue, Razek defended his "brand point of view" by first saying that he had considered putting both transgender and plus models in the show. However, he hadn't because,"we market who we sell to, and we don't market to the whole world".
Going on to defend his decision Razek said, "we attempted to do a television special for plus-sizes [in 2000]. No one had any interest in it, still don’t."

You’ve got the right idea-good for you-I made the commitment to healthy diet and targeted workout a long time ago- and have never regretted it.
I’m a bit smaller than that-5’8 1/2” and 105-106 lb on a small frame, the same as I weighed at 17-so a 1200-1400 calorie intake per day is fine for me. My employer and best friend is 6’3” and 185-he is my age-still strong and muscular. I’ve seen him eat at least twice as much as I do many times, but it is all paleo/organic stuff...
The only carbs I consume come from fresh veggies, dairy-yogurt. cheese, etc-and a few seeds and nuts-the rest of my food is protein and fat from non-processed natural sources-butter, meat, fish. I do not eat processed food at all and I never developed a taste for sugar and starch. Living in a rural area where we all grow produce and fresh, free range eggs and meat are available makes that easy to do.
I do construction work and decided some time ago that I wanted more upper body strength than the average female to be able to take on more tasks-so I bought my own free weights and added them to my resistance band workout-it worked-everything is still firm, my lifting capacity has made me more productive at work and my upper arms are up to 11 3/4” and that gets me some admiring looks which I like-I’m over 65. There is no age limit on staying strong and healthy in a natural way-even skin texture improves...
Gina v Jayne..
Zero adulterating chemicals, minerals, or padding.
All natural. g
Some men's favorite supermodels may not be exactly who they thought they were.
No one wants to find out that Victoria’s Secret is that she started life out being called Victor and hasn’t had the surgery yet.
I knew if I read far enough, that would be here.
:)
Can’t tell for sure. Need more pictures.
No fatties or trannies though.

It’s simply a canard overall mostly generated by fembots to claim our ideal is too skinny but with exceptions in some anorexic looking models
Women are fatter....no question and sizes have moved to accommodate their fragile egos
A size 2 in 1955is now a 4-6,....at least
My wife is tiny....a 00 to 0 to 2 on occasion
My mom was petite too and wore a size 4 in the 50s
Her old size 4 cashmere Hermès and Dior cardigans fit my wife perfectly whereas a modern size four would swamp her
Yep
I enumerate same further down thread
Kardashian is a fat butt
Proof culture is Africanized
Sophia versus Jayne
Imagine Victoria Secret making sexy lingerie for Hillary Clinton. Horrible.
seriously they NEED to make a secret of this???
leftists destroy everything that is good
You do a google search on women models and it now comes up with fat ones in the results.....
#EdWood
>>and men, don’t want really want obese and fat women... or vice versa.
Notice when all of the corporate world puts together their ad campaigns showing their diverse workplace environments with white males in the minority and background only, none of these corporations have 2 or 3 obese people to round out the portrait?
Aren’t 50% of Americans supposed to be obese or at least overweight?
>>Imagine Victoria Secret making sexy lingerie for Hillary Clinton. Horrible.
Underwear that looks like a burlap couch in 70s orange.
do a google image search for white couples...
Yes
There was a song that was popular in the early seventies by Alvin Lee and 10 years after. It actually had incredibly prescient lyrics.
It offered no answers. The melody was truly haunting.
But it acknowledged exactly what we’re seeing right now nearly 50 years later.
It was called “I’d love to change the world”. If I could find the lyrics I’d post them here.
Uglies hate the pretties. And their hatred is visceral and violent.
it was a revolution 50 years ago led by the same militant leftists who “lead” today.
John F Kerry’s group wanted to assassinate congressmen until their support for the war in Vietnam was halted. Peace movement? No, pro-Communist military movement. Just ask Hanoi Jane.
A Communist from the early 70s became the head of the CIA???
A Communist who spent in honeymoon in the USSR almost became the Democrats’ candidate in 2016?
Jerry Brown is STILL governor of California after rubbing shoulders with a megalomaniac Communist named Jim Jones 40 years ago?
Kate Millet founded NOW, she wanted to tear society asunder...
this was written by her sister who witnessed the whole thing

Marxist Feminism’s Ruined Lives

“When women go wrong men go right after them.” – Mae West
“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.” Winston Churchill wrote this over a century ago.
During my junior year in high school, the nuns asked about our plans for after we graduated. When I said I was going to attend State University, I noticed their disappointment. I asked my favorite nun, “Why?” She answered, “That means you’ll leave four years later a communist and an atheist!”
What a giggle we girls had over that. “How ridiculously unsophisticated these nuns are,” we thought. Then I went to the university and four years later walked out a communist and an atheist, just as my sister Katie had six years before me.
Sometime later, I was a young divorcee with a small child. At the urging of my sister, I relocated to NYC after spending years married to an American executive stationed in Southeast Asia. The marriage over, I was making a new life for my daughter and me. Katie said, “Come to New York. We’re making revolution! Some of us are starting the National Organization of Women and you can be part of it.”
I hadn’t seen her for years. Although she had tormented me when we were youngsters, those memories were faint after my Asian traumas and the break-up of my marriage. I foolishly mistook her for sanctuary in a storm. With so much time and distance between us, I had forgotten her emotional instability.
And so began my period as an unwitting witness to history. I stayed with Kate and her lovable Japanese husband, Fumio, in a dilapidated loft on The Bowery as she finished her first book, a PhD thesis for Columbia University, “Sexual Politics.”
It was 1969. Kate invited me to join her for a gathering at the home of her friend, Lila Karp. They called the assemblage a “consciousness-raising-group,” a typical communist exercise, something practiced in Maoist China. We gathered at a large table as the chairperson opened the meeting with a back-and-forth recitation, like a Litany, a type of prayer done in Catholic Church. But now it was Marxism, the Church of the Left, mimicking religious practice:
“Why are we here today?” she asked.
“To make revolution,” they answered.
“What kind of revolution?” she replied.
“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.
“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.
“By destroying the American family!” they answered.
“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.
“By destroying the American Patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.
“And how do we destroy the American Patriarch?” she replied.
“By taking away his power!”
“How do we do that?”
“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.
“How can we destroy monogamy?”
Their answer left me dumbstruck, breathless, disbelieving my ears. Was I on planet earth? Who were these people?
“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution and homosexuality!” they resounded.
They proceeded with a long discussion on how to advance these goals by establishing The National Organization of Women. It was clear they desired nothing less than the utter deconstruction of Western society. The upshot was that the only way to do this was “to invade every American institution. Every one must be permeated with ‘The Revolution’”: The media, the educational system, universities, high schools, K-12, school boards, etc.; then, the judiciary, the legislatures, the executive branches and even the library system.
It fell on my ears as a ludicrous scheme, as if they were a band of highly imaginative children planning a Brinks robbery; a lark trumped up on a snowy night amongst a group of spoiled brats over booze and hashish.
To me, this sounded silly. I was enduring culture shock after having been cut-off from my homeland, living in Third-World countries for years with not one trip back to the United States. I was one of those people who, upon returning to American soil, fell out of the plane blubbering with ecstasy at being home in the USA. I knelt on the ground covering it with kisses. I had learned just exactly how delicious was the land of my birth and didn’t care what anyone thought because they just hadn’t seen what I had or been where I had been. I had seen factory workers and sex-slaves chained to walls.
How could they know? Asia is beyond our ken and, as they say, utterly inscrutable, and a kind of hell I never intended to revisit. I lived there, not junketed, not visited like sweet little tourists — I’d conducted households and tried to raise a child. I had outgrown the communism of my university days and was clumsily groping my way back to God.
How could twelve American women who were the most respectable types imaginable — clean and privileged graduates of esteemed institutions: Columbia, Radcliffe, Smith, Wellesley, Vassar; the uncle of one was Secretary of War under Franklin Roosevelt — plot such a thing? Most had advanced degrees and appeared cogent, bright, reasonable and good. How did these people rationally believe they could succeed with such vicious grandiosity? And why?
I dismissed it as academic-lounge air-castle-building. I continued with my new life in New York while my sister became famous publishing her books, featured on the cover of “Time Magazine.” “Time” called her “the Karl Marx of the Women’s Movement.” This was because her book laid out a course in Marxism 101 for women. Her thesis: The family is a den of slavery with the man as the Bourgeoisie and the woman and children as the Proletariat. The only hope for women’s “liberation” (communism’s favorite word for leading minions into inextricable slavery; “liberation,” and much like “collective” – please run from it, run for your life) was this new “Women’s Movement.” Her books captivated the academic classes and soon “Women’s Studies” courses were installed in colleges in a steady wave across the nation with Kate Millett books as required reading.
Imagine this: a girl of seventeen or eighteen at the kitchen table with Mom studying the syllabus for her first year of college and there’s a class called “Women’s Studies.” “Hmmm, this could be interesting,” says Mom. “Maybe you could get something out of this.”
Seems innocuous to her. How could she suspect this is a class in which her innocent daughter will be taught that her father is a villain? Her mother is a fool who allowed a man to enslave her into barbaric practices like monogamy and family life and motherhood, which is a waste of her talents. She mustn’t follow in her mother’s footsteps. That would be submitting to life as a mindless drone for some domineering man, the oppressor, who has mesmerized her with tricks like romantic love. Never be lured into this chicanery, she will be taught. Although men are no damned good, she should use them for her own orgasmic gratification; sleep with as many men as possible in order to keep herself unattached and free. There’s hardly a seventeen-year-old girl without a grudge from high school against a Jimmy or Jason who broke her heart. Boys are learning, too, and they can be careless during high school, that torment of courting dances for both sexes.
By the time Women’s Studies professors finish with your daughter, she will be a shell of the innocent girl you knew, who’s soon convinced that although she should be flopping down with every boy she fancies, she should not, by any means, get pregnant. And so, as a practitioner of promiscuity, she becomes a wizard of prevention techniques, especially abortion...
