Have you happened to catch a glimpse of the new Lane Bryant magalog? This one's absolutely gorgeous. It's got five female “regular sized” models of different races and hair colors wearing Lane Bryant's new T3 jeans, some heels, and nothing else.
But don't worry! The photo's safe for work. The only skin you can see is side boob and back. Some girls will give anyone side boob.
You know some people are protesting this glorious display of jean-clad femininity and curvy female solidarity, right? Mothers and Christians (and another regular-sized model) are outraged. Because really, what Lane Bryant was trying to display with their image is that it's okay to be a naked lesbian.
Wait, what?!
Yes, some folks are accusing Lane Bryant of trying to corrupt their children and elicit shock and awe. Because, obviously, women standing together with their shirts off are being both gay and sexual.
What's Lane Bryant say?
Well, on their Facebook page, they posted this in response to a particularly disgusted comment, “[The image's] intent is to feature a group of beautiful women proudly showing their figures and empowering our customers to embrace their own curves.”
We're all about that.

Its amazing how some people can find something (anything) that they can twist as sexually misleading to "youth" or their narrow minded views. This way they can dictate to others how they should think.
Stupid, stupid, stupid! To see images like that and have 'Lesbian!' jump into your mind... what are you thinking of? And why should anyone else be forced to follow your obsession? And I thought Dick Cheney showed us that lesbians are now accepted and valued members of society...
I find it more problematic that Lane Bryant is using "regular-sized" models and then saying, "...proudly showing their figures and empowering our customers to embrace their own curves.”
Um - that's not really supporting your demographic, guys.
What's the problem if they are promoting lesbianism? Why is it not okay to have an ad like that, when so many clothing ads feature scantily clad men and women in compromising positions and no one blinks an eye? To me that's the real issue.
Comments on the OMM page ranged from appalling to disgusting. Such hatred. Too bad anyone takes their crusades seriously.
And they've attacked Lane Bryant customers on the Facebook for the past week. Shouldn't organizations like that be held accountable for defaming a business?
