Shrinkinate your linker please.
Um, no.
If more Asians had the type of bodies that Victoria's Secret looks for, they would be in there. It has nothing to do with their race, so let's not pull that card. Notice how a lot of their models are Brazilian? Who doesn't want slim, toned, non-anorexic looking models with killer legs?

You clearly didn't see my point. I did not say anything about Victoria's Secret hating Asians, or what you thought it was a disadvantage. What I'm saying is that you'd see "more Asians represent" [bf8e1b7733d]if they had the type of body Victoria's Secret looks for.[/bf8e1b7733d] I really don't see how it's a big deal. And yes, she's pretty.

why would you say that? every race has different types of body. no PARTICULAR body type goes with any particular race! i see skinny asians, fat asians, medium asians, etc. thats really an ignorant comment.

Are you skimming through my posts? I don't care what kind of body Asians have and I know different races have different body types. I'm talking from the viewpoint of Victoria's Secret. I've seen what kind of models they go for, and what they don't. Don't put words in my mouth, and surely, I'm not the ignorant in this conversation.

Just because they have fake tits and bend their bodies so they look "curvy" doesn't mean the models don't have eating disorders. From the amount of rib cage I've seen from skimming the site I'd say something is up.

quote from you. so, you are saying most asians do not have the type of bodies you would consider nice.. they dont have, as you would say, "slim, toned... etc" did i read that sentence wrong?
[ie505af7132]that[/ie505af7132] is stereotypical. how about i say if <insert particular race> had the intelligence a managerial position needs, we would have more of that kind of race in that position.

Yeah this is a good thing, right? But then again I guess it's more like saying "Oh yeah Abercrombie just got a black model."
BTW off topic, but Hollister now has a black model. They place his portrait in the far back though by Clearance O_O
Back on subject, I think VS does the whole "hot or not" thing. If a person is "hot" enough, then they can pose for Victoria's Secret. It's the same how we have things here at A&F.

Don't edit my quote to your advantage, you easily lose all credibility. I mentioned most of their models being Brazilian because of the LOOK that they have. THAT look is what Victoria's Secret wants, not me. And it's not what I consider to be nice, it's what Victoria's Secret considers to be nice. Don't try to put words in my mouth, it's not going to work. Get it? Good.
This has nothing to do with brains, but rather a particular look that Victoria's Secret WANTS. If an Asian makes it into Victoria's Scret, fucking awesome, but there are reasons why you don't see more of them. What part of that do you not understand?

He said from the VS standpoint. He's not personally prejudice against Asian body types. Personally I don't see the patheticness. Every company has their look and particular people they want to represent their clothing.

Don't worry shopoholic, Roger Clemens has your back.
[quoted893c03589="The Rocket"]Clemens makes insensitive remark
Roger Clemens was discussing his future Tuesday at the Astros season opener when he responded to a question about his health after the World Baseball Classic with a comment that some might consider racially insensitive.
Clemens, who broke down late last season with injuries, said he felt fine after the WBC and left the tournament impressed by the quality of the international teams.
But he made a questionable comment when speaking about the devotion of the Japanese and South Korean fans.
"None of the dry cleaners were open, they were all at the game, Japan and Korea," Clemens said. "So we couldn't get any dry cleaning done out there, but I guess the neatest thing is that 50,000 of them were at Anaheim Stadium."
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report. [/quoted893c03589]

Amen. Let's watch!
As for Roger Clemens, it simply seems to me that he's making an observation. The dry cleaners were closed because a majority of the people who own dry cleaners are Asian, and they wanted to go see the Asian teams play the American teams. I don't see how that's insensitive. It's an observation.
