"Jeans are about sex," says Calvin Klein.
Klein's advertising is about the reckless misuse of sex and child-like images to sell jeans. Women who support Klein and those like him may be financing their own oppression and contributing to the victimization of children.

"Fashion and flesh merged. It became hard to tell the difference between fashion magazines, featuring more flesh, and Playboy, featuring more fashion...But there's no escaping the fact that today's fashion role models are very small, very thin, very expressionless little girls...Even when she's barely dressed, Moss' face is vacuous. Not a thought in the world. Not even a desire. She goes topless for Calvin Klein's ads, but her champagne glass itty-bitties seem prepubescent innocent, not sexy. 'She's almost presexual,' says Fabien Baron, creative director for Harper's Bazaar. 'She has no concept of her own sexuality.' Thus the theory that fear of AIDS has made this new appearance of inexperience--innocence, purity and virginity--very appealing. Safe Sex Chic?"
