"A woman can insist she would never choose to have an abortion while affirming her support of the right of women to choose and still be an advocate of feminist politics. She cannot be anti-abortion and an advocate of feminism."

-Bell Hooks

Buy Deodorant, Spray in Eyes

I know we have all been there, walk past an amazing smelling guy in the dead of winter and feel the sudden urge to have wild snow sex. At least this is what the makers of the Lynx Bullet, a spray deodorant from the same people who bring us Axe, think will make men want to try their product.



Their new line of ads take on a theme that might seem harmless to most but what caught my attention was not the product itself but the fact that I was under the impression that it was for a line of pepper spray. They feature a tagline which reads ‘Be prepared this festive season,’ which I took literally as in, ‘Be prepared this festive season in case you might be the would be victim of sexual assault.’

Although the first ad I viewed was what appeared to be a CSI-like aftermath of a couple on the hood of a snow covered car, the next ad I viewed which appeared to be in an alley by a trashcan left me feeling quite disturbed.

Below I have created a new ad for a product that they might have fit a bit better.
