I'll take the 2 on the left please.

That sort of thing can be common in NYC like they said.

I don't see the big deal. OMG partial nudity!!

[Svenska Aeroplan]

That's a good idea. I wonder if they will sell enough to pay for the models and make a profit.

Not a bad idea. Though the article and video seem a little on ends. The article has a quote about how lingerie models are ruining the feel of the small town, while the video has the girl talking about the raves she goes to in lingerie.

What does it mean when the smilie has m's for eyes?

"It's tainting the wholesome businesses down here," said Carrie Rossignol, co-owner of Video Game Exchange.

"I think it's selfish, and I think it's morally reprehensible."

WTF, get a life.

I dunno, this kinda pisses me off.

I mean, yeah, freedom of speech, but it's objectifying women to the extreme.

Too many younger females I know would be willing to be like this, sadly.

And I like it. I hope it becomes common place throughout the US.

I just pray to god the "plus-size" clothing stores don't try this.

You're scum.

[Battle_Pope]

[guy incognito]

If they choose too, then what is the difference. No shame in showing off what you have, sexuality is not wrong.

[uniform_motion]

I bet you wouldn't care, or you wouldn't call it objectification if it was men.

Anyway, seriously, freedom of speech. Who hasn't seen women in their underwear before? It seriously doubt it's ruining the towns whole atmosphere.

I would care if it was men, I'm not some gay feminist. But I also didn't mean the scum thing, it was a joke.

So you don't want anyone showing off their bodies? That's a bit puritanical, don't you think?

I never said for my opinion to become law. I'm saying morraly it's stupid to use your body to sell materialistic shitty clothes.

And this applies for guys too, I'm not going to change my opinion just to see some sexy guys, geez.

Seriously though, this sort of thing could be a bit distracting in a small town setting. I mean how are the poor poor video game store owner supposed to sell copies of DOA 4 when thier are real swimsuite models in the store two blocks down from him? ;_;

I wouldn't quite consider Augusta, Maine to be a small town. It is the capitol city of Maine after all. Still, I wouldn't say it's a big city either.

The human body is beautiful and there's nothing to be ashamed of, regardless of the Bible.

I think that is SO beautiful that it should be regarded as something more than a selling point for CLOTHES.

There, that's my view, no matter how confusing my posts have been.

ahh my immediate reaction to this is that it's cute. xDD;;
