Personally I cannot see anything offensive about these posters, at least they are tame in comparison to some of the images show on TV, both in commercials and pre-watershed programmes.
But this is from a males point of view, do you ladies find them denigrating towards women in any way?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ."vulgar" ? So what? A programme called "Aerobics Oz Style" which features a group of very attractive scantily dressed young women gyrating around on a beach has just been on Sky - that's no less "vulgar" but if it was on when you were in a shopping arcade, for example, and Comet / Currys etc was showing it on their banks of tellies, it wouldn't be turned off for being "vulgar", would it?
It's all in the mind, folks. You have to be thinking something "dirty" in the first place!

It's true that 'sex sells' but I think most people in advertising see that idea as being a bit more subtle than some woman passionately throwing her legs into the air 'cause some guy is looking up her skirt.
I agree the images are kind of distasteful. Except for the first one, that one's pretty average.
"I'm sure in our uber PC country if the image had been of a man lifting a mans shirt rather than a womans skirt there wouldn't have been such uproar."
No, there really would have been... Remember that Heinz advert?
