When shopping with my fiancee at Victoria Secret in Galleria Mall Fort Lauderdale, FL. I wanted to be sized for the appropriate bra cup/size. The staff waa really friendly and did a good job however, when going into the fitting room I asked if my fiancee (female) could come in with me to help me choose the appropriate size and fit and I was informed by the sales associate that if she wasn't my mother or daughter she couldn't come in the fitting room with me. Now, I don't see how it matters if we are mother/daughter, sister/cousin or even roommates. She and I are both females and it is a a female boutique. So therefore, there should be no discrimination against same sex partners and fitting room policy. As long as both patrons are females & in the same party are shopping together then one should not be asked to leave.

I honestly believe had my fiancee been dressed like myself (feminine) then there would not have been a issue. I was offended and had to be inconvenienced by having to frequently open my dressing room door to the public to get her opinion on the fit & make of the bra. We still patronized Victoria Secrets and we were very satisfied with the product but, not with the shopping experience. I felt discriminated against because we were a same sex couple and I feel Victoria Secret needs to adjust their policy especially if same sex couples are going to spend their hard earned money in their stores.

Thank you,
