      XPost: alt.fashion, talk.politics.guns, soc.women       XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.politics.democrats, sac.politics       From: democrat-criminals@mail.house.gov              https://thepostmillennial.com/go-woke-go-broke-victorias-secret-ceo-quits-       following-brands-woke-reforms              The news comes after a disastrous few years of woke reforms such as hiring       transgender models and the cancelation of the "Angels" fashion shows,       described by former Victoria’s Secret model Bridget Malcolm as       "performative allyship."              Victoria's Secret brand CEO Amy Hauk has abruptly resigned from her       position less than a year into the job, the company announced on Tuesday.              Hauk, who helmed the company's Pink apparel brand, gave notice of her       resignation last week, CNN Business reports.              The news comes after a disastrous few years of woke reforms such as hiring       transgender models and the cancelation of the "Angels" fashion shows,       described by former Victoria’s Secret model Bridget Malcolm as       "performative allyship."              Shares of Victoria's Secret dropped by 8 percent following the news of       Hauk's resignation.              The Post Millennial reported in 2021 that the company was taking its brand       in a new direction, under pressure from woke activists who accused the       company of "not being inclusive of all different body types."              "When the world was changing, we were too slow to respond," company CEO       Martin Waters said at the time. "We needed to stop being about what men       want and to be about what women want."              "I've known that we needed to change this brand for a long time, we just       haven't had the control of the company to be able to do it," he added. "In       the old days, the Victoria brand had a single lens, which was called       'sexy.'"              Victoria's Secret overhauled its advertising and began to hire a wider       range of models. One of those models, US women's soccer star Megan       Rapinoe, said that there isn't a one-size-fits-all to sexiness.              "As a gay woman, I think a lot about what we think is sexy, and we are       afforded the ability to do that, because I don’t have to wear the       traditional sexy thing to be sexy and I don't think the traditional thing       is sexy when it comes to my partner or people I've dated," Rapinoe said.       "I think functionality is probably the sexiest thing we could possibly       achieve in life. Sometimes just cool is sexy too."              The company has suffered from uneven sales since the start of the       pandemic, dropping dramatically in 2020, then improving a little in 2021.       They are predicted to fall again by up to seven percent this year.                     --       "LOCKDOWN", left-wing COVID fearmongering. 95% of COVID infections       recover with no after effects.              No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.       Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.              Donald J.

Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed       dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
