OBJECT
Yet another advert using sexual imagery to sell its product and yes, its yet another bingo company.
Now we all know that bingo is played by the gays and the girls, but the constant desire to promote gambling with the use of sexual imagery or notions of male genitals is sickening.
Imagine an advert say for a lads mag, (those horrible nasty lads) and there promoting SKY Gambling is an oiled up a female model and she holds a watermelon to her groin with a big gash in it. It could almost look like a vagina without actually being one. Then of course, Tilly from Ipswich will be rubbing one off before complaining to OFCOM about sexist misogyny, inappropriate talk, crotch fondling, rape and genital warts, so would her venom be. Yet for me and many other men who are wakening to the clear double standard, no more a roll of the eyes but actually acting. (See KFC post above). Even the outcry from both men and women about the Bertolli pervert advert failed to get action but we are getting there. Indeed, OFCOM informed me that there had been a huge negative reaction to the advert. So thumbs up all round especially the sisters.
But the matter doesnt rest there. The increase of perceived stories in soaps and adverts involving male genitalia is at epidemic levels I mean:
Coronation Street, the local men are coerced to do a full monty to raise money for charity. Cue many lines about penis size and even, wait for it, mothers sat at the front of the audience watching the men including her son in the strip group? WTF?
Eastenders, a young man decides to be circumcised (male genital mutilation) to get the jewish princess.
Foxy Bingo, Scotsman exposes his genitals to a bus full of women.
Jackpotjoy Bingo, Old tart Windsor and three men in kilts, a windmachine starts to blow the intention of which is to see who is completely naked underneath.
Thomas Cook and James nesbitt has an accident with his trunks allegedly revealling himself to a family of annoyed and disgusted people including a child who is looking traumatised. Cue the hunk flashing his tits before warning Nesbitt to keep his trunks fastened.
All this drivel is overlooked and ignored because of apathetic men. Sorry brothers. You need to get your thumb out of your ass! (How American!)
Do you really want to live in a world where this is acceptable only to men? Are we supposed to ignore sexist objectification because its a man? Indeed, if that is so what does that tell us about the perception of men. Disposable? Well yes ask the 7 million men who died in WWII. Or are we suggesting that he is superior and that he should not feel vulnerable, embarrassed and exposed? I strongly believe BOTH!
