I'm I over reacting about this poster? I complained to the parish council but they have refused to do anything about it.
I don't want my kids to see this kind of image on the way to school.

It’s not just sexist, it’s really overtly sexualised, which is inappropriate for children to see, especially given the Santa theme!

Take it down.

I would.

CheapSausagesAndSpam · 13/12/2017 22:31

Or if you can't, then I'd get black paint and spray over it.

IrkThePurist · 13/12/2017 22:31

Thats grim.
Got a marker pen?

RestingGrinchFace · 13/12/2017 22:32

Confused that's very graphic for on street advertising.

CheapSausagesAndSpam · 13/12/2017 22:35

Yes a marker pen....scribble over the rude offensive bits....and all the details.

cantthinkofanickname · 13/12/2017 22:37

Think I might just take it down

Here;s a good link from the ASA

It seems the poster is breaking rules

So tell the police and forget the council.

MaisyPops · 13/12/2017 22:40

I'd report it.
Whatever people think personally about thr content, it's hardly appropriate to be up out in public all day every day

Our local paper loves a story like that. If you get nowhere with the police/council, give the news desk a ring.

Brilliant thanks for the advice

The police? Jesus wept. How on earth do you think the police deal with sexist adverts?

Has there been a timeslip ...back to 1974 ? I can hear the ghost of Sid James cackling away ...is this seriously an event ?

MilesHuntsWig · 13/12/2017 23:02

That’s grim and inappropriate. Local paper...

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 14/12/2017 00:06

Awful. One of the many things I can't stand about Christmas is sexy Santas ( that dreadful Santa Baby song for example)
