There were a few people offering nuanced takes about beauty standards and racialized aesthetics and a very small number of outraged people. But there was no mass rage at American Eagle or Sweeney.
But inventing liberal outrage is what Republican media do best.
I talked about this with my son - I am the same age as Brooke Shields and remember her “nothing comes between me and my Calvins” ads when we were both 14. Sex sells, but I am glad that we have sexy jeans commercials with adult women instead of catering to pedophiles. Minority opinion, I am sure.
