Oral Fixation Takes Over Ad Industry

I really wasn’t going to comment on this ad but after reporting mouth-shaped urinals were removed from a McDonald’s in the Netherlands because they were seen as perversely sexual by a visiting American, I just wonder what that person would think of this girl’s open mouth, ready to receive objects that, apparently, need oral attention. Aside from all that, the not so smart thought of opening a bottle with one’s mouth and the fact this just looks like a mock up some art director wished actually ran somewhere, it’s not a bad ad.
