This video is a Panasonic plasma television commercial that’s airing in the United Kingdom. I don’t think we’ll be seeing this one in the United States, so I thought I’d show it to you here in case you’re not somewhere where you can watch this one.
I’m not exactly sure what message they’re trying to convey, or what target group they’re appealing to, but I guess the selling premise is “Buy a Panasonic plasma tv and your friends will be cum-stained with envy!”
As the rich and slim flocked to the waterfront convention centre for Rio de Janeiro’s glitzy bi-annual fashion show, prostitutes in a downtown square took to a cobblestone catwalk for a show of their own. Sex service workers from Davida, a Brazilian organisation that defends the rights of prostitutes, strutted through the streets wearing their new line of fall/winter clothes.
The brand’s name is Daspu, is a play on “Daslu,” one of Brazil’s most expensive and exclusive fashion names being displayed across town by top models like Gisele Bundchen. Gabriela Leite, a founder of Daspu, said it was no mistake that her show was running on Fashion Rio’s biggest night.
“This fashion show today makes up part of our fall/winter collection that is not on the official agenda of Fashion Rio because we were never invited. Once again, social responsibility does not appear where it should appear,” Leite said.
According to organizers, the new 2007 fall/winter line draws from the deep well of artists inspired by prostitutes, from Toulouse Lautrec and Pablo Picasso to Madonna and Sting. Hired models and prostitutes walked a makeshift catwalk in an alleyway in Rio’s red-light district, throwing condoms to an animated crowd of hundreds.
There were spartan and utilitarian shirts with black and white blocks, colorful prints and plenty of eye-catching incarnations of the staple of the industry: the miniskirt. An eclectic group of spectators – including deserters from Fashion Rio looking for something different – ended the evening dancing samba to a live drum troupe.
I don’t know if these are available where you are yet, but if you need a Valentine’s Day gift idea, you may want to look into this sex and [tag]music[/tag] combo. Sure, you could try the old chocolates and roses approach, but this one does put the focus back where you want it to be.
The “idom” [tag]condoms[/tag] don’t actually play music when you’re fucking, but the flavored sheaths (mint, strawberry, chocolate and banana) are packaged in a nice boxed set with chillout, acid jazz and dance music CDs to help set the mood.
“The music starts slow, then medium, then becomes fast before getting slow again,” said one company representative, who also claimed that the 18 minute run time for the music is not a commentary on how long sex should last.
The idom condoms are available in bookstores, record shops and trendy nightspots in cities like Hong Kong, London, Paris, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Tokyo and Singapore, or you can check out their online store.
On their website you’ll also find some entertaining sales text telling you that “Ondomusic is a companion to any good time. It can create a unique love mood in your intimate hour. The music can fill your room with exotic air particles.” And you’ll find warnings that “audio product is not for contraception” and that “you can reuse a music CD but not others.”
The rock hard cock & balls fountain in front of Amsterdam’s famous Casa Rosso will be getting some competition soon. Near the end of March, the red-light district there should see the unveiling of a bronze statue designed to honor [tag]prostitutes[/tag] around the world.
“In many countries, prostitutes struggle and people have no respect for them whatsoever. The statue is meant to give all those men and women strength,” said Mariska Majoor who commissioned the statue. Majoor is a former prostitute who is best known for founding a center of prostitution in the city a decade ago.
The statue will be forged by sculptress Els Rijerse, and shows a woman who confidently looks out into the world, “a self-assured woman, her hands on her hips, looking sideways towards the sky, and standing on a doorstep,” according to the Dutch news agency ANP.
Last week Beijing, China confirmed something that many of us have thought for a long time. That’s right, it’s true, Asian Schoolgirls really do like having sex.
Results of their recent survey show that the average student loses their virginity by 15, and more than half of them see nothing wrong with a good one-night stand in the right circumstances. One group of 1,300 girls was asked if they would agree to sex when asked by a boyfriend, only 6 of them said they would say “no.” (And those might have been Asian teen lesbians for all we know.)
Educators involved in the survey were surprised at first by the results, but believe this is the result of a fast-changing society. While their traditional culture sanctifies abstinence and the government is also officially puritanical, contact with the rest of the world has resulted in a growingly rebellious and diverse urban youth culture.
Of course some of the lucky ones do manage to escape to the USA and wind up in an Asian Teen Porn gallery.
I used to think of Brazil as a place where personal freedoms were important. I thought that in part because of the very liberal thinking regarding sex being prevalent there, as evidenced by the invention of the ‘anal floss’ string thong bikini and the topless beaches, and let’s not forget Carnivale each year.
But then I find out that telcom companies in Brazil began blocking access to the YouTube service on Monday because one Brazilian model sued to get YouTube to remove a video of her having sex on a Spanish beach from its site. The suit was brought by Daniela Cicarelli (at right) and her boyfriend, and based on that one unresolved lawsuit, a court in Sao Paulo ordered Internet Service Providers to block YouTube until they remove the video.
Okay, so now one person can sue you and cause an entire country full of people to lose access to a legal website that they wish to visit? I think the Brazilian court acted like an ass in shutting down access for everyone in the country just because one person had a problem.
The video isn’t on the YouTube site now it seems, or at least I couldn’t find it using any of the search terms I thought made sense to use. I couldn’t find a copy on PornoTube either, so I guess they wanted to avoid the same kind of trouble. Personally I don’t see what the big fuss was about, I saw it and you don’t see much of anything since they’re in the water most of the time. You can check it out for yourself at the link below if you want.
By the way, I still think the Brazilian telcom companies are pretty cool. Check out “Get Connected” to see some of the banner ads one of the companies used to promote their services.
I know that most people don’t think that people should be having sex with animals. And as the pictures on the page linked below will show, I think we’ll be able to agree that some animals really shouldn’t have sex with other animals either.
Actually, now that I think about it a little more, the page I’m linking to here is an animal cloning parody, so the truth is that it really would be people fucking with animals after all. I really hope our tax dollars are being spent on ways to use cloning to feed the world, and not just to give the wealthy some new playtoys.
Either way, I thought some of these creatures were pretty funny. I know that if these kinds of crossbreeds were commercially available, there’d be plenty of [tag]celebrities[/tag] lining up to stuff one of them into their cute little pet carrier hangbags.
I’m only showing you a few of the future pets here, but you can check out this page for many more, and in much larger formats.
