Hey, if you don't want to play their way--take off their pants and go home! Seriously, WTF? I think there's a (good) reason none of us has heard of Broomstick Pants...
The gang-rape implications are bad enough, but I also have reservations about the message this ad sends that "cool" people participate in this kind of thing, and if you have any qualms, you are automatically uncool.
I can't help but think that the guys who came up with this ad were probably college-educated, and in many fraternities back in the day (and maybe still today?) gang-rape of innocent young girls was a common hazing/initiatory type of experience. Maybe someone working out their own demons, trying to normalize such things?
(What the shit, Broomsticks?)
RAPESTICKS
Horrid advert.

I think that's the most disturbing part of all..
Jesus Christ what the fuck, this is almost as bad as the woman who is superimposed on a tiger skin and the guy is stepping on her head
WTF is it with those last two sentences? I think the folks behind this ad had some real issues.
