Objectification of Ass Condemned, Supported, Condemned, Supported…

Copyranter directs our attention to yet another gratuitous use of ass in advertising. With absolutely no relation to its purpose, the Technical University of Munich career forum chose to find hot booty, photograph it and display it purely to attract attention. Oh wait, that sounds like we’re complaining. Because we’re not.

Oh but wait! We are. We have to. It’s out job. We simply must rail against the objectification of women (and their amazingly beautiful asses) in advertising. It’s despicable. It’s shameful. It’s Neanderthal. It’s a blight on the fine, upstanding morals of the advertising industry and absolutely will not be tolerated! It sickens us to think a fabulous piece of ass like this would be reduced to an OMFG-inducing ad.

Surely the creators of this ad should stow away their dicks and bend over for a flogging from the hundreds of cause groups which would gladly line up for their chance to spank the asses of these Mad Men. Oh wait. they might like that. Maybe they should just be banned from Cannes for a year. Now that would injure an ego-driven creative far more than an ass tapping…uh…spanking.

Oh but wait! If creatives put their dicks away, there’s be no ads like this to upset cause groups. There’s be no flogging, no spanking and no cause group outrage. Now what fun would that be?

University of Arizona researchers wired 79 people with a recorder sampling conversations every 12.5 minutes for four days and found the happiest had twice as many substantive conversations and a third as much small talk as the unhappiest, suggesting the discomfort was never a social deficit.

A landmark study found that Catholic nuns who wrote sparse, simple autobiographies in their early twenties, when they entered the convent in the 1930s, were far more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease roughly six decades later, with about 80 percent of the low-complexity writers eventually developing the disease compared to only 10 percent of those whose youthful essays were dense with ideas
