I’m not into bondage at all, and the thought of having to remove that tape makes me cringe. However, beside that, I like it.

I have no complaints about this ad.

I have to agree, the image is striking but ineffective in delivering its desired message.

It reminds me of those “I’d rather go naked than wear fur” ads that PETA runs featuring models. If fur becomes unfashionable does that mean we don’t get to see them nekkid anymore? Does objectifying women encourage people not to wear fur? So confused …
As for Vote Or Die … where does one begin

Just a tad too creepy.

I don’t know if I’ll take her advice… Britney’s “I trust the president in any decision he makes,” might be enough for me.

Not at all an effective graphic, IMHO. Seems clear to me that she’s bound in a way that she couldn’t do to herself, so it goes against the message the words are trying to get across. Better would have been something like her tying a gag over her own mouth.

Gots to love it when the marketing folks are move in love with the image than in, y’know, actually communicating the message.

More interesting than Diddy’s “Vote or Die.”

Well, it's better than what we have over here.
