More damning evidence against A&F for using pornography to merchandise their clothing:
A & F's Spring Quarterly is titled "XXX." It includes photos of twin male models frolickng in the buff in a lake, naked men and topless women cavorting in a pool, women tearing the pants off a boy at the beach then more of the same with the twins at a raucous party, where a fully clothed male samples a brithday cake shaped in the form of a naked woman's torso. The catalog includes pick-up tips from adult-film star Ron Jeremy, an essay from Camille Pagali on exposing oneself in public, and the opening disclaimer:
"Before you letter writers begin, just remember we've been down this road
before. Since you already have to be 18 to get the quarterly in your hands,
we figuerd we might as well make it worthwhile..."
Yet Michael Jeffries, chairman and chief exectuive officer of A&F, said at the party that the company wasn't looking for more controversy.
"I think it's a beautiful magazine. Really, everbody construes different
meaning from it, but we were just having a good time."

WHAT? Sheesh they might as well go all-out "adult only" and put a bouncer at the door in the mall.
