My signature below constitutes a request that The Leggs Corporation assign a new name to its "Nude" tights as well as rename the "White" of its Brown Sugar (by Leggs) Sheer Collection. 


By signing below, I voice my declaration that The Leggs Corporation's classification of its tan tights as "Nude" represents a reflection of a nation still operating under a white and non-white paradigm.


My following signature expresses my want, willingness, and determination to help America continue to move forward and unearth ideas, beliefs, and practices that were accepted in the past, but have become outdated by today's standards. 


Finally, by signing this petition I demonstrate my belief that the old white and non-white paradigm must be dispensed with if America truly is a nation that accepts, honors, and celebrates every race and every skin tone equally. 

Updates

February 16, 2011

The current momentum confirms that a formal request for a meeting with The Leggs Corporation executives is the next logical step. I am drafting a letter that outlines our specific requirements for renaming these products. Expect further updates once I receive a response regarding a potential discussion date.

Finally someone said it. Nude is not just light beige. tired of being left out of the conversation.

The labels are outdated and frankly offensive. Do better leggs.

About time! There are so many shades of skin out there and companies need to catch up.
