Adidas 'Pride 2023' women's swimsuits seemingly modeled by man



:ohdear::ohdear:

What jerk thought that was a good idea?

Seemingly?

It's just an advertisement or commercial appealing to other Americans...what is the big deal. Why cannot everyone just live and let live? Enjoy each day and forget all this stuff

Silly me. Was brought up that men wear clothes made for men and vice versa.

Have we lost the right to have an opinion? Did the memo go into my spam folder?

Here is the actual ad people are talking about...

The Alphabet Group are one strange cast of characters. If War ever comes to our front door, this country is toast.

And to think some idiot got paid to put this nonsense out there. Talk about a turnoff.

Sounds like something else I won't research into since it didn't affect my life so far.

Well, there's always Nike to fall back on. Oh, I forgot. Another on the no-no list.

Why is everyone so worried about what men or women wear... Most people need to open their minds and stop living in a little box. I am all for people being to wear what they want.

Making a mountain out of a mole hill. The advertisers are probably aiming at a group of purchasers other than you would find here in The Villages. Same with the beer.

This is so ridiculous. Who cares and how does this affect you? I guess the real question is why is the OP on the adidas female swimsuit page? Or did he have to seek this out in order to post it. And btw, it’s always the same 4 people who do these things.

Correct

Astounding that there exist people who want to wear interesting styles, and don't really care to assign "menswear" or "womenswear" labels to the designs. AND that companies who manufacture garments recognize this, and try to INCLUDE those people in their marketing campaigns.

Seems to me that some folks are just annoyed because they know that they will NEVER look that good in those garments. If they can't rock a full-torso men's swimsuit, then no one should be allowed.

Sad, sad people.

(or maybe they're secretly turned on by it and they're not comfortable with their own inner desires, so they'd rather just not have to see it, instead of acknowledging that it's OKAY to appreciate beauty in all forms)

There are only 2 genders. All the LBGTQ binary persons have defective wiring in their brains just as a large majority of alcoholics and addicts have brain wiring defects. However we do not hold up (active) drunks & using addicts to be admired or demand they be included in films & TV nor do we see them as role models. So why is it that the abnormal kind of sex a person might prefer to have is something to be proud of? Should S&M practitioners get their own flag and have marches? How about Incels, cosplay, etc.? I put the blame for the blatant immorality of today on the loss of the traditional nuclear family and proactive parenting. Thank god I (probably) won't be around in another 25 years to see where this is going.

"So Far"...

Well said.. going to Ireland this fall, perhaps to buy a Kilt

Hope you have the legs for one... :p

cannot believe that this nonsense has a viable economic model to sustain itself. To me it's a group trying to be " above it all" . Not looking for equality but rather demonstrating that they are superior to us all as depicted in many dystopian films with elitist characters

Hello Moderator,
I really wish the IGNORE link would work to avoid seeing their new threads too.

The redisigning of XX bathing suits for "accommodation"... hmmmm...

Pants?
 

Were pants/slacks originally made for women? Hum? Most women were them today.

Advertisers put out whatever they believe will sell more of their product.
I'm sure they must have done a study that showed this was going to work.
I'm 77, my biggest worry is that there is enough milk for my corn flakes in the morning.
At one time there was a big uproar when women started wearing pants.
10 years from now people will either embrace this or look back at this as a big joke.

Yeah, just ignore as our culture slowly degenerates and disappears.....no thank you. This kind of stuff is toxic for young minds and needs to be countered!

Huh???? Really???

AMEN to that !

Core values are being degraded by a minuscule representation of the population....enabled by a very biased and intentionally destructive media.

Their presence is not a part of our daily lives yet the media continues to make it look as though it is.

They can live their lives as they see fit, without affecting the rest of us.....

It wasn't long ago that "Pride" was in good old America and its values. The new "Pride" is a fringe alternative lifestyle.
The world is laughing at us and anticipating our demise as economic and world leaders.
We are imploding.

What concerns me is this bothers you so bad. Is there anything in this article, or what it suggests that is going to affect your daily life? :cryin2:No...I didn't think so. :mornincoffee:

I stopped shopping at Nike over 20 years ago for what the founder knight was doing. I stopped using adidas tennis shoes last year because of their shoddy quality and they wouldn’t stand behind them. What they are doing now is just icing on the cake to never buy adidas. I have a long list of never do business with again for the actions they have done and it is growing daily. I have found better tennis shoes at better prices than adidas, these guys are not the only game in town, same goes for the beer, airlines, department stores, etc..
I was so happy to hear that nordstroms will probably be going under within the next 2 years. Their cancel culture backfired

Uh - I think you don't understand the term "cancel culture." Cancel culture is when a thing is boycotted, or rejected. It is what YOU are doing. YOU are cancelling groups, products, companies. That's you doing that.

What THEY are doing is the exact opposite of cancel culture: inclusion and diversity.

You're cancelling these things, because they include them and it upsets you I guess, even though it seems to have absolutely zero effect on you personally.

Hmmm.........it appears your culture is a little more fragile than mine.:ho:

Male or Female, "IT" is still the ugliest swimsuit model I've seen yet. Gonna be hard to forget that picture.

Just when one thinks it cannot possibly get worse, it does....Target Partners with Satanist Designer Abprallen for Gay Pride Collection

Better be careful some people think we have lost the right to have an opinion on stupidity like this.

Simple............Jus don't read the thread.

:oops:

I am already looking at it as a SAD "joke." No one took "Klinger" from Mash seriously and even in the series, he was not taken seriously by the other characters. He was a man dressing as a woman in an attempt to get a section 8 out of the military. Now, they do it to get attention. They have come out of the closet that they were in due to ridicule and now the folks that shake their heads and make comments about how ridiculous these folks are, must do so silently and anonymously, less being ridiculed. In my opinion, spotlighting deviant and abnormal behavior in order to celebrate it, is morally reprehensible. And there is a difference between tolerating and condoning. Cultural diversity is one thing to encourage; deviant diversity is not something to celebrate. Kind of like a friend telling me that the reason for GAY PRIDE parades is to gain respect for their lifestyle, as they prance around in extreme dress (or lack of) and makeup and act comically. He(IT) looked puzzled when I asked how looking ridiculous to the majority would gain "respect?" It would be fine with me if they keep their lifestyle choices private. But, I am old and more or less set in my ways. On the other hand, I have grandchildren that have similar reactions to weird. Thank goodness we have passed down the idea of tolerance, but have not forced acceptance or condoning. However, I do believe there is a limit to tolerance, and I don't think it is wise to push the majority into a corner with forced tolerance. Thank you for tolerating my opposing view to celebrating abnormal mental stability/diminished mental capacity. So far, I don't condone it but I will attempt to tolerate until I feel smothered by saturation. :ohdear:
