I know it's wrong and they should limit it to late night. But I admit I was laughing at the woman playing with the 2 golf *bleep*. :-[

Many little kids would not understand this.  Just because they may ask questions it does not mean that you have to tell them.  :)  I forgot that they used the word ball sac.  I think that is going too far.  Just mentioning dirty *bleep* may not be too bad.  They are just trying to get your attention.  Many other commercials are overly violent and over the top.  I find those more offensive than dirty *bleep*.

I thought it was created and approved for distribution by young people who have no sense of propriety.  In my opinion. it showed extremely poor taste and I now have a very poor opinion of the company.  Of course, I'm not their target market.

I thought the ad was hilarious. I laughed so hard I cried. You know, some of the ads they show on t.v are either violent or sexual in nature, and to some folks are offensive. If I had kids I would try to prevent them from watching t.v at certain times so that ads like that can be avoided. I think Spike t.v, and the sports channels are the perfect places for that ad.

I have seen some awful commercials on the TV but the newest by AXE is plain unpleasant.  The commercial is just plain crude and crass.  I saw it one time and that was enough for me.  A real turn off. :bs:

I didn't find it so funny.....ads these days seem to be getting worse and worse with violence, sexual content, etc. Our kids are bound to see stuff at some point, and you would be surprise at what they actually know and understand at a very young age these days!!! They pick up on a lot of stuff from their friends and at school.

I saw that commercial late one night. I was really surprised that it would air on tv  :o although it was pretty late at night... probably close to midnight or after when I saw it

Everything today is advertised with a sexual undercurrent....or most products.  It's a main reason why I don't watch or own a TV.  Most of what's on it is inappropriate.
