Magazines that display scantily clad women are being displayed directly in front of where our children stand and pay for purchases at a 7-11 store. These magazines set impossible standards for our children to follow. With the airbrushing and sexually expletive poses they demean women and promote unhealthy body images for our impressionable youth. Especially when it is displayed in their faces.
Move the magazines or cover them up!
Please sign and help protect our youth from low self esteem, eating disorders and an unhealthy view of women.
The management at 7-11 continues to ignore our demands while they continue to profit from exploiting women and harming our kids. Silence is their cowardly strategy but we are not going away until these offensive displays are moved out of sight.

The momentum behind this is undeniable and it proves that 7-11 cannot ignore our community anymore. They think they can hide behind their trashy displays while our kids watch but they are dead wrong. We are turning up the heat on these executives until they move this garbage out of our children's sight.

My 8 year old asked me questions at the register last week that she definitely shouldnt be asking. Keep this stuff in the back or cover the covers up!
