Racism sexism and fat shaming all in the top 5, and all aimed at women.... says a lot!

Does somebody whip you bloody if you fail? No? False advertising.

No words.

I thought this was a clip from the "Blurred Lines" music video... same message tho

This just cheap and nasty

So where were the parents when this was happening???

The kids were all children of Balenciaga employees. Parents were present at the shooting and Gabriele Galimberti, the photographer, requested approval for the photos before submitting. The tone and content was requested by Demna Gvasalia, the controversy-loving Creative Director for Balenciaga, who also had final approval on the photo editing and contextualization of the ads. This clashes hard with the brand doing damage control announcing they would take legal action against the advertising company (which, apparently, they never followed through).

Weird

Mommy is desperate for money when she p**n off her kid to an ad with bondage bear.

This is worse than all the rest .... and it's the most recent.

Rich people ......

I hate when advertising does this type of disgusting output, just to have people talking about the brand.

Wtf?

This isn't simply misguided in the same way as many of the other posts, it was very deliberate. Rachel Chandler was supposedly involved in the process, and she has very concerning links to Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

Not to mention the tables in front of them

Dear me - what was this as for?

Grooming. Nothing but grooming.

Children sure look overjoyed.

I remember this. Pretty sick....thought it was a joke at first. Unfortunately not.

wtf... again

What the kids don't know won't hurt them.

I wondered how long it was before the sexism began....

It should've been the other way around. The gay son needs a strong heart because apparently his dad is a homophobic a-hole

I found this one reallly funny, tbh.

Just shows how out of touch (with reality ironically) these guys really are!!

Sometimes no Ad is better

How many people does this have to get past??? Nobody thought this was a bad idea???

Alright, sure mate, I that's what you want to believe

These were sent to members of the press as part of a press package. They immediately asked for the back. Possession is illegal in most states. In some states, shipping is illegal.

Context?

Consider at the time there was a sensible social issue about immigrants trying to cross the Channel by jumping on the back of trucks while they were waiting for boarding in France and Belgium. It was a risky move for the stowaways (some tried to hitch a ride in a refrigerated truck and died of hypothermia, some were killed while jumping on the moving trucks, or tried to hang to the underside of the trailer and were crushed when falling under the wheels). It was a real problem for truckers, who could be arrested and tried for aiding illegal immigration or even for human trafficking, despite them not being complicit or even aware of the presence of stowaways. It was also common to access the cargo space by cutting through the trailer side, en expensive damage, and often whatever cargo was inside was spoiled (such as foodstuff being eaten or thrown out to aid other crossers, crates used as toilets or opened to look for stuff to steal).

What the hell is even with this picture?? What does it have to do with gaming?

Some of these are reaching hard 🫤

I think this could well have been a provocative joke that was never intended to discriminate against women, but the exact opposite. After all, the post takes this outdated phrase and reinterprets it in a positive way. I think it's hard to tell exactly what was meant. But it's often very easy to say that something was meant to be sexist.
