That
beautiful scene of what’sabout to be full-on group sex inside a Calvin Klein billboard? It’s been
yanked from New York City’s SoHo neighborhood, much to the chagrin of
commuters. In its place is, uh, this much
“tamer” creative, which shows we’re more okay with exploiting women when there
are no men around. Both billboards are examples of how sex certainly sells, but
also how it sometimes makes all of society act like prude Quakers who get all
bent out of shape thinking about intercourse, when billboards promoting
grotesque violence are perfectly fine. Thankfully, then, that isn’t the only
bit of sex marketing to come our way of late.
Here’s one
entrant from Burger King (now showing only in Singapore, perhaps),
which is not suggestive nor exploitive at all. Notes Copyranter: “Nice
misogynistic touch making the woman look like a fucking blow-up doll.” Awesome!
Who wants to bet the lady model had no idea how they’d be positioning her in
the ad?
But the fun
isn’t over, kids, because we wouldn’t want to leave you without these Dark Dog
energy drink ads blanketing France’s tram right now. Copyranter translates the
copy: “Clearly viewed on the Internet. Choose your size on darkdogcity.com.”
