No one finds this surprising? I mean, sex sells - but they took it to a whole new level... although TECHNICALLY that stuff could be anything - glue, moisturizer, etc...

Of course it's not real "stuff," but still this almost certainly violates a number of advertising laws and regulations if this ad is printed anywhere other than an "adult" magazine. This picture is porn, end of story. I don't care HOW they try to legal-weasel their way out of it, what they've chosen to do is abso-friggin'-lutely WRONG.

I moderate a gay adult forum and we occassionally have to deal with underaged posters being where they don't belong because of their underage status. They don't need to be seeing the kind of things posted in that forum, and they don't need to be seeing this ad.

I'd rather show this ad over some model fully nude, covering her nipples with an index finger while herbal essence covers her crotch.

It most certainly IS different. It's one thing to be nude and just standing there, bare ass to the wind...it's a WHOLE other thing to be getting your rocks off in a shoe ad, complete with discharge.

Unacceptable if this ad shows up anywhere other than in "adult" magazines...

Everything on the ad is implied...

Do you see the chick sucking his c**k? I dont think so.

Then ads shouldnt have sooo many other things that may imply other things.

If the posters that have "underage status" understand the ad then there is no harm done since they already are aware of whats going on. If they do not understand the add then they won't even notice the drippings on her knee.

Hell, I didn't even notice it the first time I saw it. I was paying more attention to her breasts

You're not getting me, are you Calc? Even "implied" acts of sex are walking that fine line between acceptable and unacceptable advertising. This little stunt Puma is pulling tries to push the envelope that much further...too bad for them it crosses that line.

If this is a real ad it certainly is over the line.

I've always thought those Herbal Essenses ads were over the line though too.

They certainly are stupid.

Suffering from ads?


Anything that liberates the media is good as far as I am concerned (though they need to do a PC counterpart to this ad).
