Subject: Vacuum cleaner ad below, ganked from Inventorspot. Sorry…I don’t have a larger version, and the only context that I have is that it’s an ad for a German appliance. Too good to pass up, though.
Topics of discussion: “sex sells,” objectification, gender roles, mainstream commodification of BDSM subculture, differences between advertising norms in different countries.
Ready, set, discuss!!

I don’t know anyone who makes BDSM play look *that* pretty! And I think out of all of the folks I know in the scene, maybe 3% are the sort of “attractive” that would appeal to an advertiser’s aesthetic.
