They're here, they're everywhere at myspace, those ads where it's just a girls chest. Or sometimes I am seeing, like, the underwear region. lol. I'm not trying to be prude-y or anything. But these ads sometimes are for things that really have nothing to do with seeing girls in their underwear. Maybe it's because I am a girl, and that sort of stuff doesn't really grab my attention- but do they work? Maybe it's because it's everywhere all of the time now but I am totally desensitized to it by now. My mom will walk through sometimes and see the pictures on the screen and just laugh, "what on earth are you looking at?" "oh, I am just writing a letter to cousin so-and-so. Do you want me to say hello for you?" I was wondering though, for the boys, have you become desensitized? It just amazes me what people can get away with now. LIke I said, I'm not trying to come across at all like a prude or to go off saying all this stuff should stop and be taken off all the sites. I just find it to be an interesting change in society.

it me me laugh how advertisers like to make a science out of advertsing , stating marketing profiles , genders , lifestyles , etc. when at the end of the day they always use the tried and tested method of grabbing 50% of the publics attention , ie males , with a bit of cleavage.

Coming from a guy's point of view, I've learned just to zone those commercials out. We get it: Women wear bras. You never see commercials flaunting off jock straps......not that I would really want to see that in the first place....I just find them pointless....

lol, it is kinda sad that certain companies try to get attention like that, like their stuff can't be sold without women's bodyparts. I think its attracting people in the lowest way, and for men it's teh women body wich is most attractive

When it comes to advertising, sex sells. That's because, generally, most guys will have some sort of impulse to breed. And to breed, naturally, you need to have sex. That's the unfortunate fact of life. As well as that, they need to use sound too. Fortuneately, not all adverts use that. Especially for kids, who would probably not be interested in sex. Music and other 'cool' stuff that attracts kids will be used. Advertisers will use psychology a lot, to be able to attract as many people as they can.

YOu know I would play on Myspace sometimes to figure stuff out and my mom goes by and see this lady on an ad and she says I'm looking at naked girls or something. like porn. lol. I can't explain that its an ad because she thinks i'm lying. lol. Gosh parents need to be updated about the internet and stupid ads that show bras and stuff. Its just the funniest thing. I'm just playing the computer and an ad with a almost naked person comes on with like "wanna be sexy??" lol. My mom just gets rowdy. And the bad thing is the ads have to stand out on a website. So like when they come see me i change the page because i'm done reading it or something and the last thing they see is a half naked person. And they're going to ask "what are you hiding?" Its like they just happen to see that i change the page when they just came.

Well, to be honest, I never really liked myspace. They have funy controls and funny features. What is it anyway? A blog or a forum or a website? Or maybe 3 in 1, which they are definitely not doing a good job. Just my 2 cents

Hehe, well, advertising usually has this bit of psychology in it. Since men are most likely to be attracted to those sort of things, they think that it'll help them boost their revenue for some reason. Sure, it won't attract the female population as much, but it's a sign of their desperation.  I hate those kind of ads, it's degrading the human society. Where did the old days go when people usually dress women in outrageously huge dresses? Oh well, since times are changing fast, and the way for men to get pleasure is faster than the blink of an eye, I'd say we can't do much about it.

I worked for online ad agencies and unfortunately those ads really do work. People on them all the time. Other ones that still work are those telling you that your downloading a file, the ones that look like xp windows. The returns, meaning money they made, was greater than the complaints. If everyone just would stop clicking on those ads then it would all dissappear.round

I just on't understand the women who participate in those ads... They are that dumb? Why would they show themselves naked and a half on TV? For money? That's not really something they could be glad about..

On monday I experienced something that I haven't in a long time. Good customer service. I work
in the line of customer service, and I have come to the conclusion, there are different levels you

McDonalds recently and I ordered a McFlurry and a Sundae. I was given a McFlurry and a Shake. It was
at the start of a minor busy period (3 or 4 people were behind me waiting to order), so I waited
until the others were served, and I said to the lady that served me in a polite tone, "I...

people who are sports stars. What if you spend most of your spare time reading? Doesn'...

A Rant On Ann Coulter...
- Political rant, may get crazy. (5)
Funny how when there is one thing completely out of balance, there's another that is completely

one man who was easily injured physically, and another who was more durable than an M-1 Abrams.
Likewise, with the radical Micheal Moore, there is the reactionary Ann Coulter. Both are extremely
biased, and will defend their opinions irrationally, sometimes to the point of vile hypocrisy. Case
in point: Coulter was quoted once quoted as saying "Liberals love to pretend they...
Dental Charges

I’ve just had some dental work done – three sessions which was one root canal, one seemingly useless
session to scrape out some more of the gunk in the canal and replace the temporary filling and
finally, one white filling because my dentist totally talked me out of having an amalgam filling.
The cost of this (I’m an NHS patient) was £228 which I think is a bit steep. I didn’t have enough
money on me to pay for it so I paid £95 and promised to pay the rest later but now I’m considering
witholding payment. The other thing I should mention is that all this work was only ne...

me ie Passing the Inheritance Tax Law. That is going to save my a lot of money. Thus that is one
point I give him. My question to you all you Bush haters out there is.. why do you dislike him?
And I don't mean some bullshit answer ie " Oh cause he is stupid " , " Oh cause he is a monkey
looking freak ".. No I mean serious political answers. None of this " oh cause he s...
