HOMOPHOBIC CHIC
Am I being hypersensitive or is the advert really, like I suspect, a load of sexist tosh. You see, I'm certainly getting - two lesbians see good looking stud and are immediately cured. But surely a major perfume company wouldn't be selling that misogynist twaddle in this day and age.

Maybe they're trying to capture the pimply teen-aged boy crowd... or the Ex-Gay Movement.

ReplyDeleteI didn't think major perfume companies ever sold anything else.
There was definitely some intended homoeroticism between the lipstick lesbos, but I did not see the conversion of which you speak at the end. Just two girls who got caught now pretending nothing was going on.
ReplyDeleteNaive, silly Mexican!
ReplyDeleteNo, it's just a bloke wanting to watch. He's brought his pocket torch with him...
ReplyDeleteIt is sexist and I agree with Ostrich. There's an advert for Vodka that's suddenly everywhere on the back of buses: A bottle of vodka with a woman right next to it - only seen from chin to upper thigh and clad in a bikini. Disgusting. I haven't yet written a letter of protest to NJ Transit but I will.
ReplyDeleteWell, Ostrich, it's the woman that has what you called the pocket torch, unless you were referring to his penis, which I saw no evidence of. And it isn't perfume... it's "complexion highlighter" what ever that is, but it's not perfume. All I saw was a stupid advert for something no one needs.

BTW MP, thank you, thank you, thank you for returning to this comments box!
I used to have a stick of Touche Eclat.
ReplyDeleteI'm just saying.

ReplyDeleteIs that like Brighton rock?
no, MadPriest, unless you smear Brighton rock all over your face to make it look more appealing. Which I wouldn't put past you Brits.
ReplyDelete(PS I mean "you" in the abstract sense, not you personally, Mad Priest. I know you wouldn't do that to Brighton rock.)

ReplyDeleteDon't be silly! Although it sounds like a good idea you would get attacked by wasps, and even the Brits* aren't that daft.
* Actually I can only speak on behalf of the Scots and English on this one, but we're the important Brits anyway.
