Valentina Sampaio: Victoria’s Secret’s First Trans Model Makes History

La misma semana en la que se conocía que la firma de lencería más conocida del mundo, Victoria's Secret, dejaba de organizar su famoso desfile anual por la falta de diversidad, ha decidido dar un golpe.

Valentina Sampaio se ha convertido en la primera persona trans en formar parte del universo de la firma. Ella misma publicó en su cuenta de Instagram una fotografía en el backstage de la sesión fotográfica de la nueva campaña de la línea Pink Victoria's Secret. Escribió en sus redes la modelo brasileña de 22 años. "Nunca dejen de soñar, gente. La vida es asombrosa. Quiere más, odia menos. El odio es inútil, así que no pierdan el tiempo con él".

Laverne Cox, una de las figuras más importantes de la comunidad transexual en Estados Unidos, compartió su entusiasmo en una de las publicaciones de Sampaio: "'¡Guau, ya era hora!". También repasó los comentarios de Sampaio, su nueva pareja de Victoria's Secret, y también modelo brasileña, Lais Ribeiro: "¡La primera transexual fotografiada para Victoria's Secret! ¡Me hace muy feliz!".
La contratación de Sampaio se produce meses después de que la firma de lencería se enfrentara a duras críticas por las declaraciones del director de marketing de Victoria's Secret, Ed Rezek, que habló del motivo por el que Victoria's Secret no contrataba modelos de tallas grandes ni transexuales: "¿Y por qué no? Porque el desfile es una fantasía". Es un especial de entretenimiento de 42 minutos. Eso es lo que es, es el único en el mundo de su tipo y cualquier otra marca en el mundo lo aceptaría instantáneamente, incluidos los competidores que nos critican".

At a party recently, a man told me he spent over $100 on a sex toy to reignite his marriage — only for his wife to say she didn’t like it. The disappointment quickly turned into resentment. That moment made it clear: the problem isn’t usually the toy. It’s the pressure we put on one product to fix everything, when most of us barely know our own desires. Versatile pleasure products change everything. One toy, many sensations. If one doesn’t work, another might. No fear of choosing “wrong” — just joyful exploration. From DuoGlow’s 5-in-one design to Beatrice’s full-body wand and Margot’s clever G-spot curve, versatility turns pleasure into discovery… and removes the pressure for good.
