I actually got wind of this when it was still uncertain as to whether or not this was the real deal (which sadly, but not surprisingly, it wasn't) and for a moment my hopes were lifted high that VS was actually turning another cheek (panty pun intended). I would buy OUT my local VS if they sold the already endlessly problematic Pink undies like the one above. I think this was a fantastic way to spoof the brand and also spread the word of consent while revealing how casual sayings imprinted on our underwear seem cutesy, but too often go unexamined.
