It's that time of year again, already! As Christmas approaches, retailers are kicking it up a notch competing for your business, and Collective Shout releases our annual blacklist of corporate offenders who have sexualised girls and objectified women throughout the year. These companies do not respect women, they have not changed their ways, and they don't deserve your money. 

You can speak with your wallet and show these companies that sexually exploiting women and girls is bad for business.

Below is our boycott list for 2016:

Former Playboy playmate Kendra Wilkinson has revealed that at age 18, she had to be "drunk or stoned" to "survive" sex with Hugh Hefner.

Does that include Hef's 9pm curfew?

More promotion of the global brand of the porn industry from Bras n Things who continue playing their part in the mainstreaming of pornography. This image of a Bras n Things window display was posted on our Facebook page. We've modified it a little to add some much needed info about what is really involved with 'being a bunny!'

We summarise the response received from Adairs and Bras N Things following complaints about Playboy merchandise

"I sincerely apologise for any offence we may have caused you, this of course was never our intention."

It is not about an individual's feelings on the matter, but about the nature of what Adairs is promoting. Playboy is a brand of pornography.

"At Adairs we pride ourselves in creating furnishing options to appeal to all of our customers. We chose our new Mansion collection to cater for our customer who is looking for something a little more fun and glamorous."

Another retailer jumps into bed with Playboy

We wrote last week about how the Playboy brand is now adorning bed sheets from homewares and manchester retailer Adairs and how this is an example of the mainstreaming of Pornography. A Collective Shout supporter has today alerted us to Bras n Things latest promotion.
