Only if you're a precious little **** with no sense of humour.

Yeah I've seen them on buses where I live. I did think they were risky ads as what if a kid was sat in one of the seats and has an arrow pointing up at them seems a bit weird. Think it's the lowest of the low TV show anyway

The arrow pointing at older folks
is just rude

Naked Attraction. It's the show I always think of when some right-on, woolly-woke says "OMG! I don't know how they got away with that!" about some quite innocuous comment made in the 1980s.

Eh, I can see that some people might find it funny. The intention was probably to make it into a "photo op" where people would be snapped with the arrow pointing at them for their socials.

Yes,
thats why it had to go

The issue is definitely that they have no idea who will be in those seats... especially the "loves being naked" ones. A kid, or a sexual assault victim, or even just someone with very poor body image in that seat and it's obviously deeply inappropriate. Also, women have enough trouble with people making suggestive comments at them in the street, without stepping off a bus not even realising that they've been sat above a giant "loves being naked" sign.

And they might not even know the arrows are there, especially with the advert not being on the same side as the door...

some hipster is getting fired :laugh:

[Nicky91]

not something you want to advertise out in public too much

but also shouldn't be axed


here in my nation you also got a special hour for this sort of shows, after midnight in special titled content called Erotic TV

[user104658]

Honestly I think that's part of the "joke" (that the person in the seat has no idea about the arrow pointing at them).

Fair point! It could be humourous, if the caption was something more appropriate!

Sure does i've only seen bits of it on other shows but its cringeworthy.

Racism being described as "innocuous". :joker:
