A threesome is the norm advert rant

If a 7 incher offended someone, then they must be jelous0

That feels wrong on a number of levels but I'm not exactly sure why. I blame a bottle of red wine
Models will do pretty much any work whether they are paid or not to be honest - a D&G Campaign on someone's portfolio would be huge and a lot would do it for free because of the exposure it will bring. But it's a job. Pretty much like a gay actor playing a straight man in a movie, or vice versa. I used to work in the accounts department of a model agency and even I am surprised just what work they will do for the money they get paid for it.0 -

"A threesome is the norm"
No, of course it's not. Adverts like this don't represent 'the norm' - they portray aspirational lifestyles that can only be achieved by buying the product. If you buy a D&G watch, you'll see what I mean...0 -
Can anyone tell me what the watch is like?? LOL0

Thanks for the replies
Had a long day at work & reading them cheered me up well that and the JD :beer:
I just think it's a shame, watershed means nothing anymore most kids are up after their parents these days
TV is used as a babysitter at all times of day & night
I guess it's just a refelction on the world we live in"Very funny, Scotty. Now beam down my clothes." :cool:
All truth goes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Then, it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident.0 -
I think the ad is a bit over sexy to be on during the day, i don't want my 9yr old daughter asking why the lady is rolling round kissing 2 blokes....anyhoo...
My favorite advert at the moment is this Gucci adhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUtkQ1lp_Yo :rotfl:

A bit of a sweeping generalisation there, no?
My kids certainly are in bed at a decent time every night and so are all of their friends (ages 8, 10 and 15).
A raunchy advert does not the end of the world make0
