What do you think of the imagery? I feel a little bit odd about it, but I haven't watched it with sound yet. Maybe that will clarify my feelings.

I saw the short version first and the first comment was predictably awful.

Eh...I can't make head nor tail of it. It's...wanky.

Yes, I think you've made me realise why I felt uneasy about it - it is very "perfume ad"

I don't like the Bennetton ad - too much focus on being aesthetically pleasing for the message ... and wanky.

The animated one is much better.

What fuck was that all about then? I don't remember much in the way of rose petals being thrown at me. Fists, yes, pretty, light, fluffy things, no.

Can't see Buffy's one, it says it doesn't exists Sad

The first one is full of wierd looking model types and detracts from the message. Where are some bloody statistics? .....and without minimising issue women face here, that meron video Sad we dont were born over here do we.?

I hate the beneton one. It's trivialising. I think these companies are not really interested the the issue but just want to advertise off the back of a serious issue.
