It is getting old. I don't believe sex is the only thing that will sell a product. It isn't offensive to me. You kind of laugh when you see rice made sexy. Immoral I don't think so. I think things about everyday life are funny. I love the new M &M commercial. Everything the guy says they make a song out of it. Take different jobs that a mass have. Like the medical field. Grocery clerks. Restaurant workers, etc.etc.

different people are offended by different amounts of sexuality. i know with some advertisements, if it is about sexuality only, i don't even pay attention to the product. for example, i remember there was a commercial for car insurance or a car lot or something related to cars. the only thing i saw in the commercial was a bunch of girls standing around half naked for no reason. i like advertisements that are funny instead because i'm always telling someone about a commercial if its funny and telling them to look out for it. its a better way for me to remember the product and it gets the word out.

Sex in advertisement.

I don't see it as anything that will ever go away. The more liberal we get as we go on.. the worse commercials and everything else is going to get. I don't really seem it harming our youth.. I'm sure 13-14 year olds have been having sex since forever... advertisements aren't going to make any difference.

Keep bit*hing about it though and I'm sure the government will just do something stupid and put a ban on it. They have enough control as it is.

It depends how the sex is used. There are a million variations on how you can use sex in an ad. I don't think it's immoral, but on the other hand I don't think morality has anything to do with advertising anymore anyway since most of advertising is based on creating lies and illusion. I don't know what the effects are, long term. Obviously sex is still used a lot so people must think it works. Having said that - there are as many alternatives as you can think of. There's no limit to them, just that the format of advertising is so rigid...


mo
Sex sells


Big Ben
I think today people are accepting it, that sex is o.k on t.v. if you watch m.t.v for 24 hours straight, i would bet 17 hours of it has sex linked with it.. every type of music today has some soft porn in it.
i think its immoral, sex is something that you and your parner are supposed to feel and see and memorize it not the whole world..


KANDY_GIRL
well sometimes people want to make some money and do it differently we cant juge no one for what they do we never no the reason and its a free country so i guess they can put an add like that!!!everyone does wht they want with their own body and we cant say its wrong cause we dont pay their rent and food when we do,then we can talk!!lol

Although sex in advertisement is offensive, it is still an effective tool to capture people's attention. Sex sells!


Ruski
Sex, Food, Safety, Water are all essential for a healthy physical and psychological well being. All of those topics are OK to exploit. Its our puritan society that tells us Sex is a no no, well how do you think you came to this world. Restrain is purely a personal issue

The first part of your question can only be answered in a subjective manner. Sex can be offensive to some, funny to others and interesting for a few! Moral or immoral, again it depends on the culture, norms and values of society etc. So, the answer, sex in advertising is not offensive to many, offensive to some, some find it immoral, while other can not care less.

You need to ask your self, what is the role of sex in commercials and why do the creative directors of ad agencies use it??

Answer is simple; sex captures the attention of the viewer, it makes the ad standout from the rest, hence generating word of mouth and gets high recall figures amongst the target audience as well as seconday targets.

There are tons of alternatives that can achieve the above mentioned advertising objectives;

1- Funny ads - acheive good levels or recall, generate word of mouth
2- Cute ads - babies, pets etc
3- Celebrity endorsments

Remember, at the end of the day. The advertiser wants people to see the ad, remember it and talk about it. Sex makes that happen, but so do the other criteria mentioned above.

Hope the above helps

if its offencive to the public its not offencive to everyone. i say dont watch! immoral to show natrual human actions? i think not. it makes people pay attention for good or bad reasons. the only close alternative is comedy.

I don`t think its nice to show *** in advertisements.But how about romantic scenes which touch our hearts directly?We like to see those advertisements again and again without any feeling of discomfort.So what matters most is if the advertisement is filled with emotions or remind us of wonderful memories..
Romantic scenes along with good music and good models will be great..rather than showing the wilder version of romance.
