    What an odd way to phrase the title of a thread about beautiful women...

    The women in the boxers - i can't help but look at that saggy bit around the middle of them and think they have a pair of balls dangling behind it.

    Beereal! Are you people not aware of the practice?!? Beer can be used to replace any liquid when necessary (consumable liquids).

    Hot birds don't need to be relevant to what you're selling. They don't even need to be vaguely interacting with the product.

    If the revenue commissioners simply had an ad campeign with naked birds and a logo saying "declare all your income" they would never have to bring someone to court.

    what about those ads on telly for lynx manwash - I will never buy lynx again - I dont want to see men without clothes on. Likewise I will never wear anything from lacoste after their ad with the naked guy walking around the place, urrhh horrible. My missus likes the ad though but I told her if she bought me anything from lacoste as a result I will f*ck it in the bin and I will if she does.

    I must say I kinda felt the same way about that lacoste ad. I was watching the naked guy prancing around the place thinking.. is this supposed to be aspirational? Am I supposed to identify with this guy? Is this how the girls feel when they watch all the zillions of ads with half naked women in them?

    It didn't work for me anyway.. I'd have responded more strongly to the ad if the chap was driving a sports car or had chicks draping themselves all over him. :D Who knows, maybe that lacoste ad was aimed at gay guys..

    I was more referring to the refusal to deal with companies that are using them in their advertising :rolleyes:

    The fact that you felt the need to add even more cryptic homophobia to your response really shows the depths of it, though.

    bout time I say... although this has long been known. Which can pretty much be seen by the fact that woman are on the front of both mens and womens mags.

    Woman are beautiful, lets be honest, men aren't... at least to men. I think it has something to do with the fact that men are more comfortable in their skin than women. A male model on a catwalk looks the same to me as the bloke who drove the bus in the morning, or the lad behind the counter in the cafe. I find them all neither good looking or repulsive. Where as women instantly will fall into categories of beauty and aesthethics. I think because woman are always longing to look like someone they are not, they are also judging other woman on their looks. Which is why a beautiful female will draw the eye of both sexes.

    No, I just don't generally waste my time talking to idiots, such as someone who'd boycott a brand for the content of its advertisements not agreeing with their view of the world, and who can't understand commentary on what they've said themselves.

    So you don't find for example, a 24 stone fat man repulsive? Or one who looks like he has a ass for a face? Because I do.

    Here you go lads. Click.

    Anyway, I was discussing this with a friend last night.
    There was an ad on the tv with some guy who was butt naked (shown from behind). We concluded that if it was a woman there would be uproar.
    Later I saw another ad which showed a woman taking her top off and throwing it at a CCTV camera before you could see boobies. I wanted to see the boobies because they looked good underneath the t-shirt she was wearing and she had nipples like bullets. Unfortunately there are restrictions on that sort of thing. Man nipples seem to be ok though. Yet it's perfectly fine for women to breast-feed in public.
    I've no idea where I'm going with this. I just want to see that chicks tits.

    yeah sure there are exceptions, someone who is morbidly obese or horrifically ugly with a 200lb tumor hanging off their face is going to be repulsive. But i'm talking about the majority of men out there.

    So not buying from a brand whose ads you dont like makes someone an idiot. You have issues mate!.:rolleyes:

    No, stating that you'll throw out anything, even gifts, associated to a brand who's ads you appear to hate solely due to containing unclothed men, followed by crypto-homophobia (whether you realise it or not), means the only person with "issues" here is you. I'm not sure its worth my time explaining why, as you're not going to understand.

    Ok when again did I start on about crypto-homophobia? Your talking pure mule, you are even arguing with yourself. Perhaps you can answer the question do you like seeing men naked or not? and have you told anyone about this. I have stated my opinions :eek:

    They should also apply this marketing ingenuity to Speedos. We saw hundreds of in your face ads with men in Speedos at Bondi, Tamarama, and Cronulla beaches in Australia. Sydney would have been much more ambient if these were women. Better yet ... just ban speedos on men altogether.
