Calvin Klein - What The?

So a little eye candy for the ladies?  Not!  I saw through this ad too!  Seems to me this appealed to gay men.  The body was just far too chiseled, you know perfect like the way those who are the perfectionist type like their men, attire, environment, etc.  Very artistic, but very unacceptable like those bra and panty ads from Victoria Secret which suprisingly I didn't see.

Now if you're a parent you probably shifted in your seat a bit especially when you know your sons and daughters are "that age."  Hormones were most likely bouncing.

The commercials were boring, over-the-top, or just stupid--sigh.  You know what to do parents, complain, complain and talk to your children.  Unacceptable Calvin Klein!

Unacceptable Ad Go Daddy

There was a lot said in the recent advertisement from Go Daddy during Superbowl 45.  The online version was worse!  As much as I like their products, I used them in the past for this site, they crossed the line when they got a guy who looked like a kid making out with an adult woman. 

Apparently, they have some connections with sites that cater to adults who have baby fetishes, according to online researchers.  I must say that when you are a mother with children, you can't help but think about protecting them if you love them.  You don't want them to be introduced to anything prematurely, but it happens.  I think of the sheer number of men who are dealing with all sorts of sexual issues because someone older took advantage of them when they were boys.  A commercial shouldn't even come close to encouraging such behavior.  Sure, you may have increased sales catering to nerds who dig hot chicks, but there was also a nasty message sent as well--pedophilia is okay for adult women and boys.  Wonder what the reaction would have been if some older man was making out with a young woman who looked like a girl?  Oh the dads would be up in arms thinking about their daughters.

Any mother in her right mind would avoid doing business with this company.  Check out competitors and partner with them.  Twitter your thoughts, write a letter, and post something on your blogs.  Keep in mind, your children either saw this ad, will hear about in school (so you need to talk to them) or will see it one day and think it is acceptable.
