OPERATION PANTY PURIFICATION

This past week in McLean, Va. , thirty woman picketed their local mall in outrage over the window display at it's Victoria's Secret outlet with allegations that it was promoting lesbianism and sadomasochism. Even when the store display was toned down by removing the ropes from one mannequin, the women were concerned that it was still leaned against the pole with it's arms over it's head. Even when the display removed one of the mannequins that was lying in a bed spooning with another mannequin, they were still concerned. Even when one mannequin that was on hands and knees crawling towards another mannequin was removed, they were still concerned. And the picketing and threats of boycotting the new mall continued and will continue until the racy lingerie store is gone. Or so they now insist.

They could possibly be right maybe sexy ladies undergarments have no place in an outlet mall tucked between KayBee's Toys and the Great American Cookie Factory. Perhaps one wave of the future will be Adult Outlet Malls of America. Victoria's Secret will be right at home tucked between CayGees Sex Toys and The Great American Nookie Factory.

But why stop there, what about the department stores like Sear's, J.C. Penny's, and Mervyn's. Don't they show off lingerie and undergarments right on manniquin's, and on the shelves, and right on the racks, and for that matter don't the discount stores such as Wal-Mart and K-Mart have their items right in plain view. Since these stores probably have the right to sell these items, why not package them in brown paper bags and give a short description of their size, style, and color. Something along the lines of either, Size 5, black, thong or Size 18, pink, granny panty.

Maybe these picketers need to just get a life and get over it. The ogling of ladies undergarments has been an American tradition since it's inception. In day's past before Playboy or indoor plumbing or modern toilet paper, the last pages ever ripped from the Sear's and Roebuck's catalogue in the outhouse was the section selling ladies undergarments. So to these picketers, I have to say, "Don't get your panties in a knot."

It never seems to end with the rightous crap in America, does it? Will the soccer moms of the world finally be happy when women are walking around with clothing covering every inch of their skin and sex is only something we hear of in whispers, because now babies are made in labs, as to ensure that the world nevers deals with sexuality again. GIVE IT UP! Sex is here and its not going away. Thank god for that or I'd be out of a few jobs.

what's wrong with buying stuff that arrives wrapped in plain brown paper so your nosey neighbors won't know what a little freak you are? And why didn't you post a picture of the store display?? I used to work as a Bra Analyst...seriously.

Nice to hear from you Tina. Hope you have kicked the flubug in the ass. And yeah it gets pretty ridiculous at times.

Dear Jane, the way I look at it, if your neighbors don't know your a freak, you probably aren't doing things right anyway.My snake charming neighbors currently are not shocked by anything I do anymore. I currently have no plans to post any pics other than pin-ups. Gotta have a shtick.

I didn't mean me, I just meant in general one should not be ashamed at receiving such packages. I know your shtick...

Big D said...

Hell yeah Phred! What would the point be of going to the mall if I could oggle the ladies picking out painties in Victoria Secret?

Lindsey said...

Sounds like a bunch of women who are just bitter because they'll never be able to wear those undergarments. They need to get over it.

Phred said...

Big D.. I can`t think of ANY other reason to go to the Mall. Well, I have to admit, I do go by and look at the puppies . I know .. you probably think that`s dorkie.

:P fuzzbox said...

Phred you old softie you.

Linnie and Laurie, you ladies are probably right.I didn't see a pic of the event only the AP story but I wonder if any of the picketers had the signs posted to their Rascal Scooters.

Big D and Cleveland you are pervs. Gotta luv it.

Purity - Pornograghy. It is such a thin line and I am not equipped for the whole community standards thing.
