        Speeking of which, check out the diet magazine BeSLim.
(CaPItilization theirs).  It's likely to be called that in that
letteration to make the casual glancer see "Lesbian" so that thay do a
double check.  On a related note, the word "tastes" is just one letter
away from "testes," hence its ubiquitous use in cigarette ads.  "OXO"
"OVO" and "OMO" letter combination resemble angered eyes, thus are very
eye catching for use in product names.
        I only mention the spear because it is an outline compared to a
more fully rendered person.  Perhaps it's some avant-gard trend I've yet
to hear about, but it looks like an afterthought.
