Interesting, but rambles quite a bit

Sometimes it's hard to know where they want you to focus with this one. At times, it feels like it should have been titled "the case against Les Wexner" - and rightfully so based on what was presented. The body image claims about Victoria's Secret in all fairness could be made about virtually any swimsuit, lingerie or even fashion brand during their heyday. The current generation has brought fresh perspective to size, shape and inclusivity In the last 3 - 5 years. We can't revise history and lay all the blame of prior ills on one company. As a grown woman, I never looked to Victoria's Secret for framing my own opinion of myself, even though I liked their lingerie back in the day. Their shows were tongue and cheek at best but certainly not a 'to-be' model for me/my image. Like many streaming documentaries, this one probably could have been covered very well with one, 90 min well-edited episode that picked a lane in which to focus. Much of the content is regurgitated across episodes for shock value but little new ground is actually tread.
