This advertising is free provocation. Do you see a connection between shoe and blow-job : i don't, the same advertising for a pant's zip will be more logical ... .
This advertising is of very bad taste, the sperm on the right leg of the girl, is a trivial detail.
Really i dont understand why some pro of advertising have to meld everything with sex. Sex to sell tomatos, sex to sell pizzas ...
Sex melted with everything looks like a total lack of imagination coming from the professionals of advertising.
<strong>....unless they're wagering that their demographic are the adults of tomorrow, who are so inured to sexual imagery and innuendo that they'll immeditately gravitate to the brand once their parents have defined it as 'scandalous' and 'evil'.

It's like when that 2 Live Crew CD was banned in Florida. Made a very amateur band's album go multi-platinum. There's no such thing as bad publicity (I think that might be PT Barnum again).
OK, so you all agree that it's bad, but we've all seen as bad in everyday advertising -- which has just become a science of suggestion these days. Is it the bodily fluid that sends us over the top? fear of the body, iDunno?
You think that this was HARD for the guy in the pic when they where about to SHOOT it? :eek: :eek: THE PIC I MEAN <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />
apparently, the marketing dweebs at one... uh... urban wear/footwear company have followed this trend... their new spokesmodel is none other than porn-queen Jenna Jameson (shown scratching her, um, itch)

anyway, it doesn't have to offend someone to still be degrading
there is a real chance that people have learned to love what degrades them...

<strong>i spent 10 minutes googling, and can find no evidence that these are real ads. anyone else?</strong><hr></blockquote>
Yea I did some googling too. That's why I asked what magazine they were in.
Nothing here, I can't find a trace of it either. But a quick look around where those were hosted was confusing. Where did Jon find them?
