Continued negatives associated with Victoria’s Secret

By: American Decency Staff

Some through desensitization and numbness, dullness in discernment, etc. may think that being concerned about what is exhibited in a Victoria's Secret front window display is "over the top". Though we've said very little on this subject in recent months it doesn't mean that we are just moving on as moral and spiritual declension inundate us. Though VS is not displaying in our local malls as egregiously as in the past, the displays that we observed last week in one of our local malls was not what we would have liked to have seen in this Christmas season when so many will be passing by these public displays.  These displays (and some worse) undoubtedly characterize VS displays in your local mall. We urge you to take a moment and contact corporations responsible for such trashy displays.

We cherish our youth. We work hard to provide good examples, attempting to teach them to discern between good and bad – right and wrong – decent and indecent. We are alarmed, undermined, and upset when we take our family to the local mall and are confronted with incredibly aggressive sexual advertising on Victoria's Secret window and wall displays and mannequins. Your public advertisements are offensive and obnoxious. I urge you to discontinue your use of erotic, pornographic wall and window displays in mall stores, in your publications, and television ads.  I await your response as I determine the course of action I anticipate having to take.
