Whose skin are you in? That is the question. And who has the answer? PETA's sexy "fashion police," of course!
They've been hitting the streets to educate consumers about the injustices facing animals killed for boots, belts, jackets, and other apparel.
I love these photos! So fun and eye-catching. Believe me, everyone around was paying attention to these ladies!
What's wrong with leather? Animals killed for leather are mutilated, treated like unfeeling machines, and denied everything that is natural and important to them on factory farms and in slaughterhouses.
Leather production causes great suffering that people can help to end simply by choosing from the many fashionable alternatives to animal skins!
If you want to avoid a run-in with the "fashion police", make sure you keep your closet cruelty-free. They may be easy on the eyes, but believe me, they're tough on crime!
P.S. Yes I know the last line of my blog is incredibly corny.

Hook me upp with a sign and I will do that here in canada for free.
Omg... this sends no message whats so ever... Skimmpy clothes does not equal animal rights... can you honestly think that people would actually take this serious? If PETA really wants to do something..they need to get off their ass, stop just bitching about a cause and take some action that will actaully make a change...cause it's deffinatly not gonna get anything with this..

Posted by: alex at May 7, 2009 9:24 AMwow i love it!
its cool and pretty smart!
Terr,
It gets people's attention to a very serious issue. We use a variety of tactics to reach people, this is just one of many. And to answer your question, I can without a doubt tell you that people take the issues very seriously after learning what happens through the information we get out with these demonstrations.
You didn't mention a single alternative way to reach people. It's easy to complain, but what would you like to see instead?

Posted by: Pulin at May 7, 2009 10:24 AMThere's nothing wrong with being fun and sexy while spreading a positive message, Alex. Stop being a prude.
Posted by: Jan at May 7, 2009 10:26 AMObjecting to sexist imagery used in a campaign doesn't make me a prude. Don't equate anti-sexism with anti-sex. There's always something wrong with treating a woman's body as a commodity. It doesn't matter if the message is positive or not, it still contributes to sexism in our society. Where are the boys in hotpants and spandex? Missing? Yeah, I thought so.
Posted by: Alex at May 7, 2009 10:59 AMi agree that objectifying womyn is lame...although the cause here is pretty damn good. the only solution is to have skimpily-clad guys and girls out there together.
