Sex sells

Everywhere I turn my eyes are met with sexual advertisements.  I can't watch television without a Cialis commercial popping up (no punn intended).  I open up my Real Simple magazine to get tips on organization and a girl advertising Olay body wash with a slim ribbon covering her essentials pops out at me.  Greenpeace has a new ad that shows tree branches caressing knobby parts of the trunk.

It is so frustrating!  Products that have nothing to do with sex weave it into their commercials and advertisements.  Why?  Because sex sells!  The subliminial message is if you buy this you will be sexier, thus, more appealing to those around you. 

I know I'm not coming up with anything new here but I just had to have a quick rant about it.  I don't like it one bit.
