OMG! MC banner ad for HustlerHollywood

Lordy have mercy.....a banner ad for a 18 and over website! Geez Louise...times must be tough for ad revenue.

"This site is for adults only! You must be 18 years old to enter this site and it must be legal for you to view adult material where you live."

What do you think about that? It doesn't really bother me, as I'm an adult, and my underage kid doesn't read here....but I remember someone giving me bad rep for putting "a$$" in a post saying that profantiy was not appropriate here, so I'm sure there are people far more conservative than me.

I think if I don't like it, I don't need to click on it.

And, I've actually been to the Hustler store in Hollywood -- which looks a little like a Barns & Noble, complete with a coffee bar. Halley Berry was in there with her boyfriend at the time.

True, true. But I bet the idea of helping out Larry Flynt doesn't sit well with the very conservative couponers amongst us.

So, we can't talk about normal bodily functions like periods. Or, good healthy discussions about adult sexual relationships that don't demean woman because a child might somehow be on mommy's message board. But, having links to a porn site is find and dandy ... ah the irony.

I don't pay attention to the ad banner things.

Ha, on the radio tho, a "mild" station, the kind they play in the dentist's office even, and which touts "family friendly" kept running some PSA about rape. I thought, hmmmm, not very kid friendly, IMO. Especially when they have this one lady on there saying "I can even let my 4yo listen to it" HUH??? How do you explain rape to a 4YO???

Ah yes ...the menstrual cup thread. Where somebody got their panties in a bunch because GOD FORBID we should be talking about bodily functions that a child might read about.

A few months back it was the banner for OHMIBOD, the vibrator that attaches to your ipod running here at the top of the page. Now it's Hustler. I guess the almighty buck is what rules the MyCoupons rule book.

There is a kind of double standard, isn't there? I would think that talking about a menstrual cup would be more acceptable than buying the DVD "Easy at 18"....but what do I know?
