In the run-up to Christmas, businesses have made every effort, but Australian lingerie brand Honey Birdette advertising has come under criticism for alleged soft pornography.

Angry parents launched a petition to ask Honey Birdette to remove the ads, according to the Daily Mail, but Honey Birdette founder Eloise Monaghan said, "We are once again overconservatives, under the banner of `protecting children,`" said Honey Birdette founder Eloise Monaghan. To launch an assault complaint against us. "

"No child pointed to the window and said I was offended," Monaghan said. In addition, Monaghan found the protesters tearing up photographs of models, or magnifying the model`s privacy, "which is a repulsive act." "magnifying the picture like this, whether it`s a male model in shorts or a female model in a swimsuit, is anachronistic and objectionable," she said.
In fact, this is not the first time the brand has come under fire for its edge-scraping ads, a series of, Honey Birdette ads that were eventually boycotted by stores last year after receiving a large number of complaints from customers. But Monaghan never saw it as a problem, saying advertising had no obvious sexual implications and models exposed their skin to empower, not demean, women.
