Re: what do you think of these ads?
I fucking hated them. The second one had some humor, but that first one was so disturbing. I just hate how Americans have to degrade fat people like this. Its everywhere. No wonder the majority of Americans fucking hate ourselves when we look in the mirror. Because of shit like this we will never be happy

I say it was pretty fucking mean myself. There are ways they can advertise that can get people into the gym but not by making fat people feel like shit about theirselves, that is pure cruelty, I agree with your post cutey5032.

I dunno. Maybe he's just trying something new.
I think for all the ppl it appalls, he might actually have some new members who it resonated with.
I dunno if it implies that the ONLY reason to get fit is to get sex, rather maybe he's thinking this is the msg that will resonate most with ppl, and he could be right.
Sometimes we tiptoe around the fact that we are hardwired and biologically driven to produce babies via the best-looking mate, and tho "everyone has differrent tastes", there's still a mathematical equation to universal beauty.
It's kind of a fact: more Americans are sex-obsessed than health-obsessed, no?
I think it's kinda funny, def effective, and anyone who tries a different approach should be lauded for just that......as long as the workouts aren't giving you the same msg as the commercials.

awesome message.
Well, duh, why do women do anything? ::) We must land a man! Funny that the closest I was to ever marrying someone, I was at least a size 14.
And what are the urine tests for?
