It’s interesting the people they chose. In the first photo there’s a black guy in a fairly standard casual/business outfit. But I think the thing they’re showing of is that they allow for natural hairstyles and facial hair.

Then then next photo is a white woman. But they’re showing her in pants (like men!) and that her shirt isn’t low-cut.

Next is a Sikh man and Muslim woman. Showing that they allow traditional head wear.

Finally is the photo I posted. Showing a woman in a skirt meaning they allow skirts but not too short and again a conservative top.

This brings me to the last example. What would you say they’re trying to say with the painted nails and earrings? I have my own suspicions.

    I think blursed is appropriate here, cursed because it's fucking megacorp finally approving new ways for people to present, but blessed because this is likely the trajectory social acceptance will take in the US.

    Like I can imagine trans acceptance will look like Target or Walmart eventually changing their clothing sections to "masculine" and "feminine" and also having gender non-conforming people in their stock photos, kind of like how they might have a black woman or disabled person. So when a kid sees clothing they like, and a picture of someone with the same sex as them wearing those clothes, they'll have a cue to go off of.
