WHAT KIND OF SUPER IDIOT THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE TOO RACY FOR 18 year olds. AND ALSO, AS long as there's no nudity, why is it racy at all!?!!? Just look at the polls. Whoever started this column should quit life. And whoever Voted that this was racy at all. Its a women in a one piece swimsuit, not even a bikini. OMG this makes me so mad. If you dont want to see this, then you cant even go swimming, or to the beach. Because theres women wearing these, and even bikinis.

American Apparel does hang on the edge of too racey.  I used to be in the soft goods embelishment industry and would often have books from our vendors around my house.  My, at that time, 6 year old niece got a hold of one of my American Apparel books and asked why you could see through the girls clothing.  In many of the pictures the girls do not wear any type of underwear and because of the fabric most of the clothing is see through, including the bottoms.  <br><br>All of their clothing is geared towards a younger and more youthful crowd.  As I am aware that many high fashion mags do have some nudity, you don't see many 15 y/o's asking for a $2,500 coture dress.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tiffer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 2:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Top Five Raciest Ads On the Web]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[Its known that the percentage of smokers in america is way less than the ones who are non smokers, Just because you choose to light one up and blacken your lungs dosent mean i want to blacken mine when i go to dinner or anywhere else infact if America is all about freedom shouldn't i be free from the smell of smoke anywhere i go?????]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Josey]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 19th 2007 6:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Top Five Raciest Ads On the Web]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[you have got to be kidding me....please, we have a full on war happening, people are dying for this country and their beliefs of whatever may be left of a "free world."  leave it alone. its just an ad. try to think of something else....like YOUR life. oh, unless somehow this directly effects you and yours.....and what could that possibly be? your children looking at it? get over yourself this country is going down the drains with too much @#$% already....i dont want my girl growing up thinking she has to look a certain way either, so guess what? im gonna teach her not to.  duh!!!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[katt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 3:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Top Five Raciest Ads On the Web]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why are any of these ads considered "racy"?<br>Seen the ads in the Sunday papers lately?<br>It's the society we live in.....<br>I hate to mention it, but in a lot of cases, the old adage "Sex Sells" is true.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rkipping]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 2:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Top Five Raciest Ads On the Web]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[They are so many other things going on in the us that they can talk about, other then this stupid thing.

BUT the important thing about this Ad that makes it DISGUSTING!!!! is this little girl who is posing in a seductive way looks to be about 12 year old.

That is exactly what American Apparel does, just because they do it in a way that some people are uncomfortable about doesn't mean it is racy.  As a former employee for American Apparel I was surrounded by such pictures all over the store. If anything AA has started something amazing with its photos. It has taken normal people, some employees and pictured them with out make up or retouching in just the clothing, that is what advertising should be about.  If you don't like the clothes or the adds then don't by into it, but don't complain and whine about it.<br> ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lauren]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 3:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Top Five Raciest Ads On the Web]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/10/29/the-raciest-ads-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think there are a lot more important things in the world to worry about other than the AA ads]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MFlynnie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2007 3:29PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
