Wycliffe

Are those Virgin/Wycliffe ads funny or what?

[flirty41]

Hi morpheus! Well, given a choice of 'funny' or 'what', I'd go for funny! But then it doesn't take much to amuse me!! :-)

Funny, if you find laughing or joining in,in the stereotypical view of the deep southern trailer trash,that is promoted in despicably bigoted forthright promotional video`s such as this. myself I find it horrendously offensive and so do my cousins y`all.!!!!

Y'all be careful now, Shaw Tee, we got our own kinda law down here boy. My, you sure have a purdy mouth flirty.

Is it the one where the 'lovely lady' says "O Wycliffe, momma needs lurve" or words to that effect - if it is then nobody could possibly take offence - it's hilarious and I love it!!

Okay, well it depends what angle you take. I find the idea of a celeb being a victim of entrapment in a yucky-sex based marriage funny. However, it's true that this advert exploits and relies upon stereotypes which may be offensive to some people. On the other hand, look around you at all media in society- magazines, adverts, songs, plays etc- all these use stereotypes to achieve some effect, whether it be positive or negative.
