Controversy time. Forever 21 has added a maternity line. Now while I fully support affordable clothes for new mothers I do not agree with the promotion and sales at a pre-teen to young adult retail store. The company's executive vice president, Larry Meyer, said in a statement, obtained by CNN, that the maternity line is not marketed specifically to pregnant teenagers.

"Forever 21 did not create, design or distribute Love 21 Maternity to target, or appeal specifically to pregnant teens. Any relationship between teen pregnancy rates and the locations of our stores is unintentional.”

I saw another piece where Meyer said their target demographics are in their late twenties to thirties. I object. When is the last time you saw a late twenty-something or early thirty-something in Forever 21. While I'm sure many women our age do shop at Forever 21, we are not the majority. The teenie-boppers and young adults shop there to peruse brightly colored blouses and mini-skirts and the occasional t-shirt with a trivial saying... they don’t have to see the same types of clothing on a woman who is nine months pregnant. Yes, I understand making a profit, but why flood our already fucked youth with more signs that young pregnancies are okay. What's next? A playland for your babies while you shop?
