I liked It.
Ever see the saw calenders where the chicks are showing off a saw and there B(.Y.)Bs are hanging out. I thought It was classy Im glad It wasn't dudes.
Sex sells
 
Sexy is not sexist.

Holly, post your mug here so we can see what a real mutt looks like!

The choreography reminded me of rope routines in the old days with ringling brothers; kinda classy.

I'd order one, but already got one. :)
 
Umm, that was bizzare. Can't say I finished the whole thing. Lacking ppe for sure! I always wondered if one could climb in a dress/skirt, I guess my question is answered.
 
Classic vid paul; when can I visit?

Watched it with the Mrs...

Evocative? Yes!

Erotic? Probably not.

Sexist? No way.

Here's a test of whether it is an ad or ad-nography. Do you remember what the product is and what it does? Or what you would like to be doing with the eye-candy.

I agree with the principle of the "leading others into sin" But, and here is a big "but" that always gets me into an argument. While the principle of the Matt 18 rule applies to humanity, we who accept the Bible can only hold other believers accountable to it.

If you accept that Bible's game plan then you are clearly commanded to live in the world but not conform to it. Read Romans 12:2 and live your life accordingly. Then and only then will you truly be able to change hearts and minds of those who have not accepted that plan.

Meantime, if you produce such material and you are a follower of Christ then you are very much likely to be violating the principle found in Matt 18:6.

Should we condone such things? Probably not. But then again, how are ballet, gymnastics, ice dancing , synchronized swimming any different from dancing on ropes?

After all don't they use clinging costumes, spread legs and the human form put on display?

Sure there is some overt sensuality in this video and if that is enough to send you astray, then don't watch.

There are plenty of folks who can be led astray by a woman wearing a birka, does that mean we should condemn the makers of birkas?

Does this video lead you astray? Don't watch. Could it lead your brother astray? Don't mention it to him.

Want to further the cause of Christ? Don't hammer or judge others. Meet them where they are and develop a relationship of integrity.

After all isn't that what Christ himself did.
 
Its all in the marketing, I mean you watched it the whole thing. So goes to show ya that you where interested in the commercial. I took a marketing class in college you wouldn't believe half the stuff they put in a commercial hidden to get the suggested mind working for you to buy. I think it was funny would I get one based on that commercial no. OOOO and the viagra thing ( if up in a tree lasting longer than 4 hours consult your groundy)

What the hell is wrong with sexy advertising?

"kitschy cool" is the best description I've read about it. It's FOR FUN. No one was exploited in a negative or undesirable way.

Oy!

[/ QUOTE ] Totally agree! You are talking the talk AND walking the walk--inspirational to this nonChristian Deist! See ya soon, buddy. Get ready to Wride!

As for you PPE police, follow Rick's example and consult your own Good Book. The Z specifies PPE "during arboricultural operations", and them gals are just dancing, not treeworking.

cmon Holly, give it up. We all want to see how beautiful you are, to put down others' looks so freely.

Ok, the argument on PPE is a suppose to be a joke right?

Holly did post a pic of himself in uniform once, can't remember which thread.

The vid was more comical to me than sexual. I laughed, which was good because sometimes I just need to laugh.

I love the end,

Wraptor....Wraptor....Wraptor....Wraptor...

YEE HAW!!!

Agreed, "sexist" and "sexy" are different worlds.

Sexist: Discrimination based on gender. What discrimination occurred? Anyone? Anyone?

I figure 4 women using power tools to do something typically seen in our culture as masculine, inviting women to be a part of tree climbing could, if anything, be considered

empowering.


Aren't the gogo boots and those dresses signs of the 60's, women's liberation, sexual freedom, loosening of the social restraints that kept woman at home, as the dedicated mother that has her place in the world, protected by her husband/ father/ other male family figure?
 
Just watched this vid. Kinda makes me sick. Woman lifts her leg looking over her shoulder and undulates her hips.
I guess it's aimed at guys who can't get up....
