I think she is just trying to sell books.I think they sell lingerie.
I think she may be genuine. Models should not be treated like that. It isn't really surprising that they are. Victoria's secret doesn't need a commercial to get business from women who need what they sell. If anything the commercial would be to attract guys. They aren't just selling "lingerie" in their commercials if they want the best business. Even though they should.
Her story is amazing. She changed her life the right way. she is trying to help and protect the young girls' body. They could get hurt. Victoria Secret sells both, sex and lingerie.
Her story is interesting. I definitely think she's trying to protect young girls' bodies. And I think that they sell both.
Kylie's story is hard to believe. I have heard rumors about the how they must watch their diet in order to be booked. I think it's crazy that her agency told her she was fat, that's horrible. Kylie is trying to give young girls advice and simply make them think twice about if they really wanna do modeling. It seems like she is trying to expose the modeling industry for what it is, not giving it a bad name. Victoria Secret sells more stuff than lingerie, so it's really depends who you are to say if they sell sex or lingerie.
Modeling pushes girls to be something their not. I think she's genuine in her efforts. The sell both sex and lingerie.
I believe that she is genuine in some of her actions. I think that she wrote the book genuinely but now that it has been written she is trying to get more publicity for her book. I do think she really wants to expose to modeling industry for the demon that it is. Don't get me wrong, I love models but some of the things that those girls do just to keep their job and keep their body is unhealthy and unethical. I think Victoria's Secret sells lingerie by exploiting sex and making people think that they will look "sexier" or "have more sex" because of their products.
Kylie's story is amazing. I think she is trying to protect young girls body images by selling this book and telling about her experience. I don't think she is trying to just sell books. Victoria Secret sells sex and lingerie, because thats what makes people want to buy it.
I think that she is very genuine. For her to come out and write a book about what shes been threw and seen, I give her full credit on the situation. I think that Victoria's Secret sell both sex and lingerie.
Model comes from the word "role-model", and I think that since she is exploiting those who exploited her, she deserves to be called the original term (role-model). Not only may it be difficult for the models themselves, but for the young girls that see the billboards and photos in magazines of them smiling and looking thin. These young girls that desire that "happiness" may not know what stakes are being taken to look that way. It would be difficult to want that. It would be difficult to do that (act in such way like the models do to slim down). I believe Kylie's story is genuine, but to find out, the book has to be bought and read... Victoria's Secret sells sex. Sex sells. It's "secret"-ive and mysterious, something that most people desire to embrace. Sex is being sold by Victoria's Secret. If the company had real looking woman strutting their curves on the runway, then they would be selling lingerie.
I believe Kylie's story is genuine. This isn't the first time I've heard of how crazy the modeling industry is. Young girls shouldn't be called fat or have the pressure to be perfect. Every girl is beautiful in her own way. I think Victoria's Secret sells both sex and lingerie.
I think her story is really deep and it is saying a lot. I think she is being genuine, she feels strongly about what she wrote the book for and she is trying to help other people so that they don't go down the same road that she did. Victoria's Secret sells lingerie, but at times it can be degrading.

I really liked her story. I feel as if she is really genuine. Even though she is really really lucky to be chosen to be apart of that industry, that is every girls dream to be a runway model. I think VS sells lingerie, I don't think of it as selling sex.
Kylie's story is an amazing one for everyone to hear, not just girls interested in modeling. I've heard that Victoria's Secret is very strict on their models, but it's crazy that they called her fat. I believe she's genuine in her efforts to protect young girls. Girls interested in modeling should know about what goes on in the industry. Victoria's Secret was created to sell lingerie, but now it has turned into a major corporation that promotes sex. Victoria's Secret sells more than lingerie so it depends on what part of Victoria's Secret someone is focused on.
I believe that she's genuine. It comes as no surprise to me that the modeling industry will "encourage" you to lose weight, even if there's nothing wrong with your body. She's trying to expose the modeling industry for what it is, no give it a bad reputation. Victoria's Secret sells both sex and lingerie. They sell lingerie, but they also sell sex through their models' provocative positions and suggestive looking merchandise. It's taking advantage of the fact that people are becoming sexually active at a younger age.
Kylie's story is truly genuine. She is not trying to give the modeling industry or Victoria Secret a bad name, she is trying to protect young girls' body image. Girls do not need to be starving themselves and being unhealthy just because someone said they are fat. Victoria Secret sells both sex and lingerie.
I'm sure that Kylie's story has opened many eyes to the truth about the modeling industry. On the TODAY show Kylie talked about the intense pressure of staying extremely thin. Kylie also noticed the pressure that the other models were under too. Those comments speak for themselves about the pressure and stress about modeling. Kylie is a genuine girl and wants to help people with their body images and inform people about the modeling industry as a whole. Victoria's Secret definitely promotes sex.
I think Victorias Secret ads do sell the lingerie. Advertisement is about appealing to the public eye. Would the same bra look good on an ugly girl? I don't think so. Kylie's story is a bit shady. I think she knew from the beginning what she was getting into. A simple book won't help with body image.

She feel strongly about the book and tell people about the road she went down.Victoria's Secret sell lingerie ill make a dude version called Victors Secret.

I can understand where she is coming from. I have read many times about girls having eating disorders in order to become more skinny. I feel bad for those women because they are pushed to believe they must be near anorexia to be beautiful.
In her view she's helping. They may sell a lil of both.
It's inspiring to me. I really think she's trying to change girls mind and protect them. I think it's both.
I think her story is interesting. I think she's just trying to sell books because if it were really a problem i would think more than one model would stand up. Victoria's Secret sells lingerie because selling sex is illegal.
Her story is Genuine. She is just trying to protect young girls. They sell Lingerie its illegal to sell sex. you silly goose
I think both. I think she's trying to sell her books and expose them at the same time. I think she was right to leave them.
I think its really dumb on her part she was making bank. I think she is just trying to stand out. Victoria Secert sells lingerie not sex.
If she didn't want to continue her career in modeling, great. She should do what makes her happy. But, thousands of girls would kill to work for Victoria's Secret. I think that she really messed up. Also, I agree with the company that Kylie wasn't really affiliated with them. All she did was win a contest. She could have definitely been really successful with them, but she through it away.
I think that her story is real. Girls worry to much about there bodies. I do think Victoria's Secret sells sex. I don't think she is did what she did to sell books. She is trying to protect young girls' body image.
This story is weird. She's trying to sell herself. Victoria's Secret sells sex.
I think that she has a good story. I think that she was just thinking about the money and the fame. Today all models are super tiny and everyone wants to be like them when they kill there selves to be that tiny anyways. I think selling her book is a good way to get her story out there which is like a behind the scene thing.
I think this story is okay. I think she is trying to expose the modeling industry and help the girls body. I think they sell both.

I think she is genuine in her story. I don't think she is just trying to sell books. I think this is going to be her only book. She is just trying to tell her story. I think they are selling both. It is hard to sell Lingerie without selling sex. When ever you see an undergarment commercial you could state some reason it relates to sex. I don't think Victoria's Secret is trying to sell sex, but that is the way there commercials come off.
I don't really care about the story. I'm sorry that she felt that way but it's not that big of a deal. She signed up to be a model and that's what comes with it. I think she is just trying to start a new career. They sell clothing for girls.
She has a alright story. I think a little bit of both. They really sell both. Lingerie for the ladies and the sex appeal for men.
Kylie's story is strong and interesting. I don't think she is just trying to sell a book, because she could of made more money in modeling. The way she speaks in her interview, it seems she is a sweet woman and it just began to dawn on her that it wasn't the right job for her. I believe Victoria's Secret sells lingerie, but guys like lingerie on girls which later can lead to sex and when guys see these photos they think negative things.

I think that she made a good decision to leave the industry. I have watch documentary's before based on the process that models go through day by day and it made me feel so sorry for them. I do think she is genuine, because she chose to get out of modeling herself so why not spread the word?. I think Victoria Secret sells lingerie, they just sell it in a way by using beautiful women with the so called "perfect body shape" to market their merchandise.

She has a good story. I think that she is trying to do a little of both. I think Victoria'a secret sells sex lingrie.
I think that this is an interesting story. I think that she is genuine about her story. I think they sell their lingerie through sex. They make the girls wear very skimpy lingerie and the men get their girlfriend or wife to buy them.
I enjoyed hearing her story. I think it had absolutely nothing to do with Victoria Secret, like she stated. I think her book will help out a lot of girls from their own experiences with modeling, eating dis-orders and anyone who is self conscience. She felt like her body was just a runway for a company to sell lingerie or even sex. It's because the models had to look, dress, and eat a certain way to be a "perfect" size. The models are just an unhealthy profit making "image". I'm glad she left the modeling business and now she is truly happy. Why should she be scrutinized for finally being happy?
