I'm terrified. I'm 32A so I don't really deserve to open my mouth and express an opinion.

I bet these guys are amazed they've been rumbled. Women that aren't thick who would have thought!!!????

No word from the towers yet, so I haven't been banned.

Trident are definitely very old-fashioned and cheesey. Look at this
Should have the tag line: 'Because the laydee loves Milk Tray/Hi Karate aftershave...' (circa 1973)
I have to say I prefer the pogo one - honest blatant sexism.

DarrellRivers · 10/10/2008 17:46

pointless pointless video, almost (but not quite) as irritating as Eric Prydz's video for Call on me
And yes sexist twaddle, out of date in this day and age

mummsy11 · 10/10/2008 17:46

Lulumama, if you've ever watched tv late at night and seen the sex chatline adds, imagine girls like that in skimpy clothing with no sports bras bouncing on pogo sticks.

Tyme · 10/10/2008 17:48

Lol at this thread.
Did they think they could come here and change our opinion with those exceedingly weak posts?

LadyOfWaffleIsScaryEnough · 10/10/2008 17:48

Speak for yourself, I am 22.

Yes, and anybody who doesn't think it's totally cool do objectify women is 'middle-aged'.

TheCrackFox · 10/10/2008 17:52

That's right because the only emotion women are allowed to feel is jealousy or simpering approval.

policywonk · 10/10/2008 17:53

I don't know whether those posters are women or not - but I can tell you that there are a lot of women on this site who are enthusiastic consumers of porn. The consumption of objectified images of women is not the sole preserve of men.
