I know two young women who are Lululemon fanatics. Or were. They complain now that the quality has gone way down.

One I managed to almost Peak Trans. The other I have to work on a little more. I think I need to use pictures of some of our lovely trans activists. When it comes to trans activists, pictures really do tell a thousand words...

That sounds like such a typical cycle for brands. Get your name recognized for whatever is good about it, then people keep buying because they trust the brand, then more people keep buying for no other reason than the logo clout, and at that point you can lower the quality and raise the prices because people are idiots.

Commercial trans visibility is so insulting, even when the models are not revolting like our poster boys of "These are not our crimes." I've already had it with the long tenure of young, photoshopped and starved young women being better at woman-ing than I am, but now literal men too?
