ADS AND SEXUAL INNUENDOS....

SURPRISING??


BRITAIN'S advertising watchdog has banned a poster ad for cheekily suggesting beer could increase a shy young man's confidence with women, it said on Wednesday.
The poster showed a nervous looking man next to a large-bottomed woman in a new figure-hugging dress, with the slogan 'Take Courage my friend' - a slogan used by makers of Courage beer in the past.

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) said it had received three complaints from people saying the ad implied beer could give the man confidence either to make negative comments about the woman, or to take advantage of her.
