Okay, I found this on the Detroit Free Press'site: Male cross-dressers and transsexuals are now welcome at Victoria Secret stores. That means the person in the next dressing room may not, in fact, be a female trying on underwear.
It all started after a recent HBO "Curb Your Enthusiasm" show inwhich Larry David was invited to try on bras by a Victoria Secret saleswoman. Evidently the store gave its approval to the episode and willingly allows their 'mail clients' to use the dressing rooms.
According to Detroit Free Press writer John Smyntek, "Veronica Vera, owner of Manhattan's Miss Vera's Finishing School for Boys Who Want to Be Girls, says the lingerie giant gave its official seal of approval to cross-dressing customers by giving the episode its OK." And sent Victoria Secret a letter of affirmation and thanks to which the company replied with the following email:
"If a male client requests a dressing room at a busy time ... or there are female clients in the area, we ask him to come back ... when the shop is less busy. If there are one or two females in the dressing rooms and it is a shop where there are additional dressing rooms free from female use, we will allow him to use a room free of female traffic."Well, it is obvious the store does not know who it's market base is! Evidently the executives are so blinded by the potential of increased revenues that they have opened the door not only for trans-sexuals but for any over-stimulated male to claim they are a cross-dresser so that they can sneak a peek in a woman's lingerie shop. How absolutely absurd is that!
I don't know if you shop at Victoria Secret or not, but ladies, if you do I think it's time to let your feet do the talking on this one...and walk!
