I didn't know where to post this, seeing as CIH no longer has the Print Ads section. Anyway, Calvin Klein put this ad up on a billboard in NYC. (According to my mom, who keeps up with these sorts of things, they took it down and replaced it with a girl in a bathing suit).
I think this is absoutely disgusting. I don't like the message that it sends to young girls, that you have to be a sexual toy tossed around by guys to be liked. Also, the girl laying on top of the two guys looks very underage!
Calvin Klein has always had sexualized ads featuring young girls... young Brooke Shields saying nothing comes between she and her Calvins, anyone?
I'd love to hear what you guys think!

I saw the ad on the news.
Going too far, as always.

<Plus look at the guy on the floor. What’s going on there? Is he simply going to pleasure himself all over his brand new jeans? He’s not even looking at the action afoot behind him.>
That's the first thing I noticed before reading the text. Some dude with a shiney leg is playing footsy with his hair. Think I'll go hurl up supper.

I saw this particular ad on the news too. Calvin Klein ads are generally inappropriate in my opinion. This one is just disgusting, and does go way overboard. |

I have no problem with erotica but this ad is just ridiculous! I am not even looking at the JEANS! I am trying to figure out who's doing whom, who wants to do whom, and who's getting done next! And then there are all the other disturbing elements. These young-uns should be skipping stones and drinking malteds and playing checkers and not engaging in hot monkey sex!

These ads aren't about selling jeans, they're about selling an image.
Then let the image sell the jeans.

I hated his "heroin chic" ads from the 90s, which started the whole unhealthy, skeleton-showing, half-naked trend. I have no respect for him or his brand.

They just all look so uninterested and lethargic about the whole thing...as if it's just something to do when you're bored, like playing cards.

WTF?! This is just wrong on all levels. What are they trying to portray with this ad - that orgies and gang bangs are better with your Calvins? I don't know about you, but those guys look like they'd rather "have fun" with each other and not with the jailbait draped across them.
I've never owned a pair of Calvin Klein jeans and this ad hasn't changed my mind. In fact, I'll NEVER buy anything from him again! It's all just overpriced crap anyway. |

Anyone notice that the 3 "guys" look like triplets? Maybe their "bored" look is because they just finished off a 'sack' ole weed. That's the only reason I'd have my head in some dude's lap..........
The one on the floor is watching the ceiling spin.

I dunno, Tizzer.
Someone before said they believed the entire bunch of 'em prefer their own kind, doncha know.
I'm thinkin' it is probably true as she is having to hold back the one boy's face from starting some 'exploratory pipe work' on the other boy's zipper area...
