[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 49082, member: 46"] Re: Aren't we better than this? In case of misinterpretation, I am not personally offended, but do think it's very cheesy, not very creative, and in poor taste. YMMV. Some folks may be offended, others will think it's fantastic. My point is more to do with their choice to not consider certain parts of their potential target market, which seems less than ideal from a marketing perspective. I can think of lots of creative and very successful marketing that has been done for products that did not depend on sexuality. It is possible, Digico just needs to stop using the company who makes Coors Light and GoDaddy commercials for their own ads. Certainly the other issues you note are of significantly more importance. Don't get me started about human trafficking, I could quite honestly spend days ranting about the issues around that social injustice. Those sorts of issues are of great importance to humanity, which begs the rhetorical question, if we truly agree with that, why does any of us post about issues of lesser importance? [/QUOTE]
