Lynx have their adverts banned.....

 The British Advertising Standards Authority have done it again! They banned the third advert this month! But they do have a point with this one - Lucy Pinder for Lynx. 'We considered that the various activities that Ms Pinder carried out were presented in a sexually provocative way, and that alongside the focus on Ms Pinder’s cleavage … were likely to be seen as gratuitous and to objectify women. We considered that was emphasised by the text ‘Can she make you lose control?’ … and the invitation to ‘Play with Lucy’, which we considered would also be seen as degrading to women. We therefore concluded that the ads were likely to cause serious and widespread offense. We therefore considered that the poster would be seen to make a link between purchasing the product and sex with women and in so doing would be seen to objectify women.’
Good but, where have they been? This is how Lynx sell deodrant to men!!! They have made adverts like this for years. It's a bit late for a slap on the wrist now is it not?
