They’re not marketing to girls who like boys. Get over it, you’re not in their target market demographic.

AA has no stores in my country but I have noticed these online and they always sickned me. I would never buy anything from there, just because their image is so unnapealing and downright offensive. Besides, their clothes are so boring and ugly this is the only way they can sell it, I guess.

I never notice how bad their campaigns are cos never occurred to me to buy anything from there. But you pointed out something that has been going for some time and it’s not only through AA. Lots of high fashion brands use the sexual and slutty poses on the models for their advertisements and that has been like a status quo and noted as the exemplary meaning of being “hot.”

So I was thinking, how bad can AA be? I haven’t looked in a long time. So I went to take a peak and you know its not the poses that necessarily bother me, its the fact that the women are acting like sluts and the men just stand there doing absolutely NOTHING! If we’re going to look bad at least give us some eye candy AA, seriously.
