The Anti-Rape Panties of Victorias Secret


Timed to coincide with tonight's telecast of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, some activist types launched "PINK loves CONSENT," a Victoria's Secret parody peddling anti-rape panties. "To win back customers it has alienated with its 'rape culture' styles," an activist who insisted she worked for Victoria's Secret told Jezebel, the brand would replace apparently rape-friendly slogans like "SURE THING" with rape-thwarting slogans like "ASK FIRST." "When it comes to sex, words like 'no' are for setting boundaries, NOT flirting." 

Within 24 hours of its launch, Jezebel debunked the campaign. Female bloggers took to Tumblr, warning one another that this anti-rape lingerie line was not real, so do not fall for it. 

But I am here to tell you that, in 2005, Victoria's Secret produced at least one pair of anti-rape panties. I know this because I purchased them for the one and only situation in which anti-rape panties make sense: a college lingerie party.
