I don't mean to mislead readers, i am simply here as a result of following links. . . However, i can completely understand what it is about the aforementioned commericial they find so offensive. People (Especially on this site) rant on and on about how "parents should monitor what thier children watch", however how are such things possible when filth is everywhere? I can completely understand how difficult it must be for a parent who strives to keep thier children in line to explain why the man doing the voiceover for axe products is placing such and emphasis on "balls". Especially since nowadays children are taught that such terms are "dirty", if not by thier gaurdians, then by thier peers. For them to witness constant examples that run contrary to the teachings or thier parents / authority figures is embarassing, if not damaging to thier moral fiber. Please do not encourage the actions of these advertisers, it is corrupting / damaging to the youth of today.

Real life requires you to absorb ###ed catchphrases that fit perfectly into the mouth of a kindergartener that repeats it for no reason other than to attract attention? Or are you telling me that YOU actually find these idiotic ADVERTISMENTS funny? Low, bro, I bet AXE is sitting pretty as a result of you & the likeminded's easily amused futurecorpse.

By way aszure, I am affiated with no church, those are reserved for sheeple of the worst kind. However it does embarass me that people leap to the defense of tasteless, lazily written tripe that passes for advertising nowadays. It is reprehensible that simply slapping a double entendre under a product name is considered by a wide majority to be top shelf entertainment anymore.

I'd rather ride a high horse than slither through the bowels of society like you aszure.

Well... I retract my statement then. I apologise, it's hard to keep straight just who exactly is hell bent on dragging any comment I make on this site into the mud.

I ordered a couple of DVDs from this site, but I never got my order. Although they have taken the money from my account!

New product I just saw a commercial for that I find reprehensible. It was called Taint and supposed to be used to clean the perineum. I guess they were trying to make a funny commercial commercial when the guy in the shower got confused about whether to start with his balls or his ###. Repugnant! People write your Senators, Congressmen, State Representatives, Constables, Comptrollers, Bailiffs, and Ombudsman. We must stop this madness or the next thing you know someone might accidentally see a bare breast on a live telecast or hear the efbomb and by then it's too late. We must focus on the important issues and not be distracted by red herrings likes like plummeting reading skills and absentee fathers.

Hey we are all adults. We see tampon, ky jelly and trojan commercials on tv everyday. Grow up, it is a body wash for balls just like a [censored] is for a vagina!

This commercial belongs on late night cable, playboy channel, etc... I don't have a problem with them showing it in an appropriate setting. We were actually watching a family movie, early evening before kids bedtime, told kids they were going to bed after the movie. I was watching the movie WITH them. half way thru the movie, I told them I would make them popcorn in the microwave. I got up to make the popcorn, and came back with a bowl of it, to this trash! The girls are 10 and 13... This is so inappropriate. I DO monitor what they watch, certain channels are blocked through programming our channels, this channel, I have never had a problem with, NOR would I think that a "commercial" could be so offensive! But this is just my opinion, to which I am entitled, just like the rest of you are entitled to yours, pro or con. I will put my money where my mouth is, and not buy any more of their products, which are many! There is a reason this commercial was banned in Canada. Anyway like I said, it does have it's place, but not during daytime and early evening hours, and should be on more adult oriented stations. Children shouldn't be up that late during the weekday anyways, not should they be watching or have access to those types of stations. So, play the advertisement by all means...just put it where it should be.

Just like I said, you have a right to your opinion, and I have a right to mine. I don't have to agree with yours, and you don't have to agree with mine. This is what makes the world go round.

Axe Body Spray is using SATANISTIC images and use of the Satanic Church's leader Baal the goat. And if you were un aware, Satanism is bad.

You've lost my familys business forever.

June 2023 is when I first noticed the satanic ad.
