This Is the Perfect Response to Abercrombie & Fitch's Dumbass CEO

[ismnotwasm]

Never in our culture do we see sexy photo shoots that pair short, fat, unconventional models with not short, not fat, professional models. To put it in your words: "unpopular kids" with "cool kids". It's socially acceptable for same to be paired with same, but never are contrasting bodies positively mixed in the world of advertisement. The juxtaposition of uncommonly paired bodies is visually jarring, and, even though I wish it didn’t, it causes viewers to feel uncomfortable. This is largely attributed to companies like yours that perpetuate the thought that fat women are not beautiful. This is inaccurate, but if someone were to look through your infamous catalog, they wouldn't believe me.

I couldn't resist this women; she's a total badass.

1. It doesn't show in your photo

but in the complete set of photos, you can clearly see a Kitchen Aid mixer tattooed on her right shoulder.

I've just got to love that one. And yes, she is a badass.

3. I liked Ellen's response, too.

5. I didn't see that

That was funny as hell. I gotta love Ellen.

I had different reasons anyway for not shopping at A&F--first I don't like their selection much, second, I talked to a couple of employees who just hated it, said they weren't treated well, and that's pretty much a deal breaker for me.

Third, I never saw quality justifying price, and forth, I'm far too cool to wear 'Ambercrombie and Finch' (or any other logo) across my chest, especially after I saw a take off on it that said 'Ambercrombie and Bitch'---it was all over then.

My kids were never interested in the store either


I think the CEO has made a tactical error, and will pay the price.
