those ads really offend me. not because she is naked, but because she is faceless. It is basically saying that women are not individuals but just sex objects for men

eternitygoddess · 12-09-2007

OH my..............

That's soft porn.

More dancing · 12-09-2007

wow..

Salvatore · 12-09-2007

Oh...
What's more shocking than the image is that I'm shocked by the fact I'm still shocked by what Tom Ford produces.

As a visual concept, the ads are certainly creating reactions, so in that way, they work. But as something that will promote sales of the product itself, I'm not so sure. You don't get scent strips in porn mags (!). Scent is sensual because it lasts, it lingers. Porn promotes speedy, disposable satisfaction. The perfume and the pictures... contradictory timescales.

Very very tasteless. I'm not so much offended by the sexual nature or objectification of the woman, but more offended by the fact that she looks so plastic. Women do not look like that! Gross.

I completely agree and this is a massive problem in a lot of advertising.

Fabulyss · 13-09-2007

I've had an argument with my boyfriend over overtly sexual advertising during one of my uber feminist attacks and he argued that most of those ads are women's products (clothes, jewelry and even that Tom Ford perfume).

Any thoughts?

Maybe we buy into sex just as much as men. Either that or they play upon women's desire to be perfect. We want to be the sexy women in the advert, and we want to be that thin, waxed, beautiful, plastic, etc
