I like this ad, but one of my friends thinks it’s wrong when girls do things like this (you know the whole objectifying thing). However I thought that this ad has way more classy then what else is out there, IE these ones,

Advertisers are objectifying women to sell stuff? I'm shocked.

Sex Sells
Just because it happens with men less doesn't mean it doesn't happen. The whole Diet Coke break commercial is a perfect example.

Aparently sex sells everything
wanna sell a car?..just chuck a half nekkie
chick on the bonnet.
wanna sell your music?...just strip down to your undies..
wanna make a movie..?just chuck an actress in to the shortest of shorts as possible..

BUT wot ever you do..don't try n sell any shit on its own merits..

Sex sells, which is why porn is so popular. Men are visual animals, with a strong imbedded urge to mate. So yes, give us big boobs and a beer in the commercial and we will buy it.
