Sex Sells

Here are some pics of really graceful modeling from Steven Klein, cheers to Skittles for the links. There were also a lot of really provocative pictures which got me to thinking: why does sex sell so much? And why is it that sex and fashion are so closely related? Sure, everyone loves sex, but here in Costa Rica, they try to market everythig as if it were pornography. For example, this past mothers day, there were posters everywhere with a young woman breastfeeding a baby, which is weird to begin with, but it's just that it was such a young, attractive woman that it became sexual. I've seen people try to inject sex into the strangest products; toothpaste, Ensure, Pizza Hut, I could go on, but I won't. Anyway, enjoy.
