More than one thing can be true at the same time.


Especially when they're two sides of the same coin. When the choice is between seeing women as objects of forbidden temptation or the same thing, but permissible for male consumption.

You can use techloq filter so you can shop without skin images and unblock only specific links of clothign you open. Then you can shop online without the fear of seeing such grossness


Techloq didn't block it on my computer What

Yes. Though I wouldn't want a straight couple to be doing this either on this site.

Went to check. Is it the 2 women dancing together? I dont see it being that inappropriate. I wouldn't have really noticed it had I not read about it here.
Am I missing something? It doesn't even seem s-xual. Just regular weird.

Same here. I’m really confused by the hyper-sexualization on here. Like ok it’s not awesome and beautiful and not something I’d choose but it’s not omg the world is ending. They’re not even touching each other all over they’re literally just dancing together!

This is marketing - they sell what speaks and obviously this does. I mean have you seen Zara’s marketing? It’s awful too!

I agree. I watched it a few times because I thought I was missing something. Just seems bizarre and weird, but I didn't think twice about it

If you turn on the sound you it is talking about "what is love". Also, note the two women with their heads together like their gonna kiss. It is not hyper sexualization, it's and agenda.

And yeah, seems my techloq filter did not block it either. probably because I have slightly looser settings for my computer.

Update: eerily as if she read my mind my daughter asked me if she can shop online, and then told me she tried all the Jewish sites, since its winter she could prob find on the non jewish sites too... I checked on the computer first without her watching... And on my computer the videos were blocked! I have netspark on my computer. No idea how it realized to block it, pictures and videos are not usually blocked unless very explicit topics. I was wondering for a while if its really an effective filter. 10 points for netspark.

And what a crazy world we live in!

There are filters (Techloq) that do skin filtering on images if you choose that option.

I find it very helpful for this kind of thing. For clothing you can easily open up the specific page with the specific outfit with a code.

Honestly, I do not find iut an better when its a straight couple - its disgusting that the western world has decided to use what should a sacred beautiful, intimate, moment between people who love each other as a way to sell stuff.

Its been this way for a long long time and its always been gross. The gay and trans stuff is just the next level because you need to keep pushing the envelope and the shirtless guys and bikini girls are boring after years and years of being bombarded with images.....

Yeah. I'm not actually grossed out that it's two women at all. Just way too much touching and groping, I don't care what genders they are.

Ew.

And if your daughter would have seen it, what then? Granted it's weird looking but what are you so afraid of?
I guarantee she wouldn't have even noticed and clicked right past it to the clothing.

I think you're supposed to be impressed at how cultured and highbrow they are.

No.

Later on they are nuzzling each other, faces close and about to kiss, whispering in each other's ears etc
