Suit Supply advertising campaign

(warning - images are pornographic)

This explains the background. The lying f*ckers are making out there is no problem with the images because they show women who are 'obviously in the lead'.

pornographic window display outrage

(warning - link is to Daily Mail)

absolutely disgraceful!! what kind of blokes are they looking for to buy their suits

whilst they might claim (and i dont agree) these show women in the lead, thats certainly not true of their models, is it?

outrageous

The thing I find most offensive is that one of the male models is at least 45, and of course is depicted with a naked 20 year old.

Ah, so this is what the well dressed misogynist arsehole is wearing these days. Useful

The company is Dutch, and they do tend to have a more, er, liberal I suppose attitude to these things - anyone who's been to the red light district of Amsterdam will be aware of that. Seems like an odd way to sell suits though, and definitely not suitable for Westfield!

I assume they are aiming them at Men Who Aspire To Pay For Sex.

I actually think these adverts are insulting to men. Basically saying 'wear our suits and you will be able to attract good-looking women'. Suggesting that they are gullible enough to fall for it. Maybe some are, but I think it insults their intelligence.

I don't think the images show 'women in the lead', and whilst I don't have a problem with them per se, I don't think they should be on full public view in a shopping centre.

I don't live anywhere near Westfield fortunately, but it's daft, I mean, you just couldn't go there with kids now could you? Confused

jesus christ!!

how the hell are any of those women in the lead?? i don't see any of them groping the men's balls or perving through windows at the men.

i would seriously worry about a man who bought a suit from that company.

YANBU how is having someone look up your skirt at your knickers being 'in the lead'?

Inappropriate for a shopping centre. In a magazine aimed at men I could understand (even though the nudity is unnecessary) but not in a shopping mall where children will obviously see it.

Suits are awful though, particularly the combinations of suits and ties.

The repulsive one looks to be mid-40's at least, my DH is 45 and doesn't have lines on his face like that!

Pathetic

The one where he's looking up her skirt is rather funny though. It's crying out for a speech bubble
