Boston College and Victoria's Secret Joined in Sin
Up in Bean Town a strange alliance has developed between feminists and the Catholic League. But, no it is not true that the abortionists have agreed to let a priest into the mills to perform last rites—it's all about panties, lingerie and short shorts.
Indeed, just like feminists hooked up with the jihad on the sexualization and objectification of bikini-clad Pakistani women, they find themselves joining that exemplary model of sexual morality, the Catholic Church, in a mutual panty knot over Boston's College's
agreement with Victoria's Secret to produce official Eagle wear— not just hoodies and such—but the unmentionables too.
It's even worse than the time a Boston College law student did a couple of poses for a dopey Bostonian magazine called Barstool Sports:
The collaboration with Victoria's Secret “is disgraceful and appalling,” said Boston College graduate C.J. Doyle, who runs the Catholic Action League of Massachusetts. “This is just one more example of the university’s callous contempt for Catholic sensibilities and its complete indifference to what remains of its Catholic identity.”
Over at the women's studies center, they are equally concerned
“There is no way that we want that (BC) logo to be interpreted as ‘We OK the sexualization of women,’ ” said Sharlene Hesse-Biber, director of the Women’s Studies Center at Boston College, about the products.
Sharlene is a cool woman—you can tell that because her surname is hyphenated and her first name is spelled with an “S.” And, she has done some seriously good work—but, when you are on the same side of an issue as the homophobic warriors of the Catholic Action League, a girl should think long and hard. Not to mention, before any Catholic feminist starts worrying about a lingerie company, there are plenty of things right there at home in the Catholic Church, that are screaming for comment.
This is just one of those ways that colleges make money. Several colleges have licensed Victoria's Secret to manufacture University-specific skimpy wear, as well as sweats, jerseys, etc. They call it the Pink Collection.
However, Boston College did not, as did some of the sluttier institutions of higher learning, agree to letting the lingerie giant manufacture such things as stylish knickers with the collegiate name stamped on the butt.At least that is what BC spokesman, Jack Dunn said.
However he was not sure about the official Eagle
short shorts, that were selling next to the hot pink BC tank tops in a display on Newbury Street.
