But I Want to See
Oh Victoria’s. Really?

“Invisible” lace. So let’s get this straight: you’re advertising the see-through lace isn’t actually see-through? This lace effectively airbrushes your body to not appear to have nipples or any type of crotch hair or skin folds or anything, rendering you more like a cartoon character than a real human. Reminds me of cheaper underwear that can’t afford to use real lace and has to use more fabric for support of the fake lace.
Are we all starring in a movie we need to make PG-13? Can’t have an R so we can get the kiddies? Maybe this is just a way the lingerie clothing company is allowing people to be ashamed of the normal parts of their bodies, things that are supposed to be there. I could have sworn that the fun part of having lacy underthings was the peep show factor or maybe getting to see something intimate (or just plain dirrrty for those of you that need the kink factor), like how the Rockettes and can-can dancers do high kicks that could lead to a peek at the lady bits.
Oh well.
