Refusing to buy the shoes and writing a letter of complaint to the company is the best action because it directly addresses the issue of the sexualization of nurses and sends a message to the company that this type of advertising is not acceptable. Buying the shoes and complaining to the store manager may not effectively address the larger issue and asking co-workers what they think about the advertisement campaign may not result in any concrete action being taken. Looking around for other shoes may be a good option, but it is not the best immediate action to take in response to the sexualizing advertisement.
