What do you think about France' new smoking ban ad????


Because Oral Sex Is Exactly Like Smoking A Cigarette

This would have NEVER flown in America - never!

An anti-smoking campaign in France has just released a series of posters advocating the end of teenagers smoking cigarettes. As we're sure you've notice, the ads liken the act of "sexual submission" to that of inhaling tar. Since we know most of you don't read French, the punchline slogan on these ads reads: "Smoking means being a slave to tobacco."

Naturally, people are pissed, calling the ads "inappropriate" and "counterproductive," but the head of the Non-Smoker' Rights Association, Remi Parola, says the ads were a necessary step to reaching out to the youth demographic:

"We noticed that the traditional anti-smoking campaigns no longer got across amongst the youth. We thus had to use another way in order to raise awareness…We were surprised by the extent of the media buzz. But it's above all a message of public health that got across."

Certainly got our attention, but is it effective?

What do U think?

My VAG added to my poster!


More V... From our last class critique as well from other classmates advice over the past few days, I've added a more vagina-like image on one of my posters... I think it does add justice to the idea of what's trying to be portrayed... Here's a picture of the poster without its text to show the new image. On a side note I didn't realize how hard it was to draw a VAG, considering I have one myself.
