Is This Product Right For You?
I’m watching the news last night and two commercials appeared back to back.The first commercial was for a product for ED or erectile dysfunction. There is a pretty girl with her arms around her man. In her sexiest voice she says to the viewer, “ask your doctor if this product is for you.” I immediately dropped my beer onto my pepperoni pizza as I made a mad scramble for the phone. If she is packaged with the product, I want mine. Then you see her get lifted off her feet and swung around by her gentleman friend while she flashes a huge smile and looking him directly in the eye. This is done in slow motion as the seductive music plays in the background. You get a real sense about what is about to happen in the next 36 hours. (Wink, wink!) You know what I mean if you’ve seen the commercials.
Immediately following that commercial, another commercial appears featuring a woman who looks very much like the pretty girl from the previous commercial. At first, I begin to question if this is a continuation of the previous commercial or a new one. After she says her first line I realize that it is a new promotional spot. She says “Living with genital herpes can be a hassle.” Whoooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Wide-eyed, I sat there stunned. What the heck just happened?
I thought “what a self centered little slut she is.” She lures the guy into bed by getting him to use a drug for ED, then, she gives him herpes. There should be a law against that.
Just as I the phone rings at the doctor’s office, I slam the receiver down onto its cradle. I no longer want anything more to do with the “love of my life” from the first commercial.
After I get the beer and pizza cleaned up, I begin to process what I’ve just seen on the, pardon my expression, “boob tube.”
I guess the guy in the first commercial is now running around infecting a whole lot of other women with some variation of STDs or worse!
Perhaps they should return to advertising cigarettes again on television. After all, if advertising products promoting sexual activity is okay, why not advertise products that allow the couple to consummate the entire experience?
Maybe they should sell both products together in a blockbuster combination package. This could be marketed on television by Cathy Mitchell, the same woman who advertises the Grip n' Flip and the Scoop-N-Strain.
