OK, fine. I tried to play nicely, but it is just not me. Why don't the folks at VS just show the model blowing some guy or getting fucked from behind (in the behind?)? We are not idiots. We know this apron is not for dusting.
(Thanks to The Explorer for the tip.)
Well, on the household chores scale, dusting is hotter than, say, scrubbing the toilet. Also not sexy -- scooping ash out of the fireplace, cleaning the bathtub, sweeping (especially the squatting down to sweep stuff into the dustpan part), washing dishes, mopping, making the bed.
ReplyDeleteSexier chores include polishing the furniture, putting dishes away, and the aforementioned dusting. Here's why -- getting wet with soapy or bleachy water is not sexy (unless you purposely make it so, like dousing your shirt while cleaning the tub). Anything that makes you sweat or squat is also not sexy. But things where you don't get sweaty or wet, and especially those chores that require reaching overhead (because it flattens out the belly) are sexy.
Making the bed would go from not sexy to sexy if it were more like on TV, where the ladies send the sheets billowing into the air, then gently smooth the fabric, instead of like in real life, where I have to shove the bed away from the wall, lift the edge of the mattress (sometimes while keeping it in place with one foot and grunting) and shove the fitted corners where they belong, cursing all the while.
Incidentally, my security word verification is GORBSK, which seems like it would be a decent nickname for Gore Verbinksi. Is it surreal having a friend like me?

ReplyDeletebut at least the duster matches her outfit.
ReplyDeleteIs this Victoria Secret's way of telling us that just because we're busy doing our "womanly" chores, we can be sexy all the same?
ReplyDeleteI'm not really sure about this ad campaign (or catalogue photo?) and its implications, but I don't think I Iike it.
