MARK JUDGE: The New Yorker: Conservatives are Bringing Sexy Back.

The New Yorker just published a piece by Jennifer Wilson about America’s new ideas of what’s sexy. The trend is driven by conservatives, who’ve claimed breasts, lingerie and hotness in the wake of the left’s transgender, feminist and #MeToo madness.

Here’s the amazing thing about The New Yorker piece: it takes the side of the right. Wilson tries to protest, but her tone reveals that she thinks the left has become too rigid. “How had everything been turned so upside down?” she asks. “Had conservatives taken sexy back, or was this all just an optical illusion, not unlike the kind created by a padded bra or a pair of Spanx?” In response to popular athlete Sophie Cunningham wearing an Arby’s t-shirt, Wilson writes: “How did this happen? How did the right get the meats?” The conclusion: “While we were pretending not to be looking, breasts had somehow become Republican-coded.”

Wilson then turns her attention to Sydney Sweeney and the history of lingerie. Sweeney made feminists flip their wigs by doing a recent ad promoting gambling where she’s nude except for sports balls. Others are feeling equally bold, notes Wilson: “In 2024, Victoria’s Secret, under its new C.E.O., Hillary Super, had announced the return of its signature fashion show, which had been paused indefinitely in 2019. The year before, Ed Razek, the event’s producer, told Vogue that he had no plans to begin casting plus-size or transgender models (whom he called ‘transsexuals’) because the show was about ‘fantasy.’”

Super told Fortune that Victoria’s Secret would now be less “performative” when it came to diversity and would no longer “check every box and make sure every single thing someone could think of is covered.”
