my take

A detailed Summary of my take

To excommunicate a person from society because they take something so "sacred" like human sexuality and use to sell there products just goes to show how much of a hypocritical society we live in. Most of the criticism is by those who consider themselves "morally enlightened." These ethical intellectuals base their moral boundaries around their faith or affiliated church. To me, there is not a large disparity in the methods used to attract. One uses sexual promise, the other the fear of damnation.

The one factual and viable use of information that Garber mentions is fashion's correlation with politics and history (Garber 103). Throughout American culture the best way to see the signs of the times is the dress of the times but then Garber deletes her validity when she makes the comment "fashion has served a more complex function for lesbians and gays than it!
