I am disgusted by the proposed Bonds underwear advertising. It is really off. There is enough crudeness already today and I don't think it appropriate that Bonds encourage or condone it. Also. in the survey we were asked to number the ads from 1 to 8 from the one we liked best to the one we liked least. They were ALL really crude and there should have been a box to tick NONE and that was NOT supplied. I think that gives a false survey answer. SHAME on Bonds.

In the same way as people may or may not appreciate art, the same can be said of the producers of certain commercials.
Who's to say that a topic is more or less crude than an equally opposing representation labelled art?

In this instance, you have perceived that the advertisement is deemed to sexually imposing, whereas the creators of the ad and/or survey have possibly thought that no one could find their creations offensive. Shame on Bonds? Or shame on yourself for being so narrow-minded?

Perhaps suggest to CafeStudy they include a feedback option at the conclusion of the survey to voice these thoughts. I think posting survey opinions in the forums could be a possible detraction to attend.
