For decades, mallgoers, slightly confused teenage girls and horny teenage boys have wondered what secret this mysterious Victoria is hiding. The new three-part Hulu docuseries “Victoria’s Secret: Angels and Demons” explores these secrets and, well, they are less “she only wears thongs (wink)” and more “wait, was this brand just a lot of pink thongs covering up the very real exploitation of underage girls?” The media has long covered the shift in our awareness of the retouching and beyond-unreal expectations of women’s bodies, but what was going on behind the scenes at Victoria’s Secret has somehow remained mostly under wraps. You will be stunned to know that a brand built under the guise of female empowerment was created by very powerful men, who hired mostly other powerful men, who were allegedly secretly exploiting young girls, and then sold that manufactured “brand” … [Read more...] about New Hulu documentary reveals dark discoveries about Victoria’s Secret
