I think the argument is more that sex is often used to sell things so people are wary when it is used in what they see in an unrelated manner.
If I'm out shopping for an online course and I see one presented by a woman in a bikini vs one that is fully dressed I would be way more wary of the bikini one. I would think its content was not good enough to stand on its own and therefore they resorted to trying to sell it with sex.
Of course that does not give me the right to attack or make groundless accusations against the bikini course.
- bigiain 9y agoBut Naomi isn't selling online courses. If you were researching ideas in DIY tech fashion and wearables - and one blog was full of pics of a generic bay area brodude in a conference schwag tshirt and hoodie telling you how good his fashion ideas were going to look, and the other was Naomi's blog - which of those would you be more wary of? There's a quite important reason why Paris and Milan fashion shows don't use middle aged white men like Dougherty to stroll down the runways showcasing this season's ideas.
