Jaguar Apologizes For Sex-Laced Promotion

  • 1 min read

Perhaps attempting to break out of its own stuffy British brand purgatory, Jaguar launched a direct mail campaign for its XK8 that included a letter sent to 35,000 in England laced with sexual innuendo. Unfortunately, one of the letters landed in the hands of a 14 year old girl whose Dad wasn’t too pleased thinking it was from a pedophile.

Complaints where passed on the Britain’s Advertising Standards Authority and is now being investigated. Jaguar has already reacted to the mistake and has sent out flowers, wine and chocolates to upset customers. Tomorrow’s headline will be, “Bottle of Wine Finds Way to Three Year Old’s Crib.”

Behavioral scientists found that people who were overly criticized growing up often become less likeable as they get older — not because their personality deteriorates but because the exhaustion of performing acceptability for 50 years eventually exceeds the energy available, and the “difficult” person their family describes is often just someone who finally stopped auditioning for approval that was never going to be granted unconditionally

I’m 73 and my husband planned a cruise for our 50th anniversary and by the second evening I was standing on the deck looking at the ocean and crying—not because I was unhappy but because I’d expected to feel something enormous and instead I felt exactly the same as I do in my kitchen, and the realization that geography doesn’t fix the thing that’s wrong when the thing that’s wrong is internal was the most expensive lesson I’ve ever been taught in a bathrobe

The generation that was never allowed to be tired, never allowed to be lost, never allowed to need anything from anyone is now sitting in quiet houses in their late 60s and 70s wondering why a lifetime of being needed by everyone left them feeling known by no one

The real reason your aging father who never expressed emotion in sixty years of marriage openly weeps when the family dog dies isn’t sentimentality. The dog was the one relationship where he was allowed to be soft without it being questioned, and the grief isn’t just about the animal, it’s about losing the only door he ever found for the feelings he was raised to lock away

My daughter described her childhood to a friend last week and I overheard it from the next room—and the mother she described wasn’t cruel or cold, she was just less present than I remember being, less patient than I thought I was, and less fun than I tried to be—and the distance between the mother I performed and the mother she received is a gap I can hear but never close because her version is the only one that counts
