Sexal innuendo in advertising

[kickasskitty]

Do you think the advertisers have gone to far with the old sex sells and so does shock routine?

The ITC (or is it the ASA) think so - they've given Vodafone a telling off for their text flirt ad.

Yes! I was ok with the famous Sophie Dahl 'naked' picture for Opium perfume but now its been taken to far. I flick through a magazine to find an advert for extra strong cheddar cheese - surpsingly its not a picture of a picnic or summat on a summers day but a couple having sex with a condom wrapper on the bedside table and a plate of cheese and i read the caption 'Safe Sex. Dangerous Cheese'. That is ridiculous! Sex is selling the most outrageous things nowadayslike nivea deodrant! Another mingy advert is the one for Sanex deodarant where they kiss each others armpits!!!! I also think that adverts for horror movies are sometimes very scary (awwww) but theres an advert for 28 days for example where u see a dead bloody bloke pressed aganst a window! Goodness me i have ranted. but thats my view sex can sell some things but not bloody cheese!
