Victoria Secrets Consent Underwear



When I saw this the other week it really did brighten up my day. Victoria's Secret as you can see from the photo is on this new kick where instead of coming out with underwear that has  provocative sayings they are coming out with underwear that is reclaiming a woman's right to say NO! Honestly it's nice to see that a popular brand like Victoria Secret is promoting such an important cause. This seems like such a small step but it makes such a huge impact. Society is actually taking an interest in what woman have to say. It also establishes that saying NO doesn't mean you actually want to have sex. Its thought that women are not the ones who want sex typically. So they are expected to say no when a man proposes to have sex. Throughout the years this has been twisted into a sort of flirtation. Unfortunately when women say no to sex its usually misinterpreted as the woman actually wants to have sex they are just expected to say no to it at first. This is not the case a lot of times though. NO MEANS NO for a lot of women, and Victoria's Secret is trying to establish that with this new line of underwear.
