I understand what you're saying, but I think that the continuous bombarding us with these ads into complacency is exactly the patricarchy's goal. But I'm a lot older than you are and have fought this fight. I hate to see younger women relinquish hard Rappleyeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05368969125735482669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-53788953229907840142010-01-08T23:11:32.227+00:002010-01-08T23:11:32.227+00:00Donna,

Or am I just crazy?). Kim one-ups Vanessa with actual feathers.<br /><br />Honestly, I think it is a beautiful ad but nothing out of the ordinary. It would not make me stop and stare whilst flipping though a mag. <br />NataliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-15047955214110125942010-01-07T02:17:41.426+00:002010-01-07T02:17:41.426+00:00Don't know about the perfume yet (I'm Esca...Don't know about the perfume yet (I'm Escada, Gucci and Herrera fan), but the ad is gorgeous.
