Facebook Marketplace. Is my mind in the gutter or is this real?
 
I will keep this clean as this is a family forum. Put a couple of things up for sale on Facebook Marketplace today. Noticed someone selling a ladies top where the top would appear to be being worn by the seller to show what it looks like. However the photo is displaying them rather than the top it could be said. Then I can see they are selling other items of clothing and again the images leave little to the imagination.

They are not x-rated as such but clearly are designed to display the seller rather than the item being sold.

Then I noticed someone other lady doing exactly the same. Is this just a version of cards in phonebooths?

I understand where your coming from but personally I don't think the sellers are intending to come over in that manner. I think it's just the way of the world now.

If I knew how to post a link... I would link my classy post from a few months back.

Unfortunately it appears for some decorum has no meaning.

I will not be posting any links for two reasons

Firstly its family forum
Secondly the first person my be just selling clothes and I wouldn't want to embarrass her. Saying that not too sure I could do that.

I'm still thinking she is selling something other than the loose fitting tops which feature no undergarments.

If your right and I hope in many ways you are then I'm clearly completely out of touch.

It reminds me of my father wondering why the glam bands in the 70's had to wear so much make up and questioning their gender assignment.

Sorry for any confusion I wasn't asking you to post any links. I had posted a thread months ago pretty much regarding the same thing. Unfortunately my friend I think you are out of touch as such is modern times.

No they focus is on what is under the items of clothing

My daughter was advertising some sandals recently. The picture only showed her feet wearing the sandals. She had some really creepy comments from a man about how pretty her feet were etc. This really unnerved her. She contacted the site admin but never had any response.
