What if Boojay’s Michelle was a cougar?
Dr Mumbo is delighted to see that Budget’s Michael and Michelle – have gone out in a blaze of glory.
As regular Mumbrella readers will recall, Budget Direct is transitioning to a new, alien spokescouple.
But not before the Ad Standards Board was asked to arbitrate one final time on the nature of the relationship between the younger Michelle and her older ‘friend’ Michael who corrects her pronunciation as she showers.
I’m not sure why this ad attracts so much scorn. The previous one where the “French” woman said Budget could save the bloke “moo-la-la” … now that was an outrage!
The relationship isn’t unrealistic. Cashed up bloke. Trophy second wife. See it everywhere.
So many prudes in this country. Eye roll. I for one would welcome some 40-something cougar nabbing a 20 year old man on television. Come to think of it, isn’t that precisely what Rhonda in AAMI’s ad implies, with a much yonger and “exotic” man? Yeah. Double standards, as usual. –Intentious
Yawn……next! Perhaps the complainant has direct experience with an ex-husband moving on to younger pastures?
For many people (perhaps too many) where they stand depends upon where they sit.
A simple session of word association would reveal something like This:
Bed – Sex. Couple – Sex. Breakfast – Sex. Liquor – Sex. Sex – Filth.
In my opinion, the hijacking of christian morality by a bunch of men in frocks and others in simple black suits and starched collars has created a massive guilt burden from which society is still reeling.
She was washing her hair and he was taking a shave for g**s sake. As for older man with younger woman, what is the problem? There is a stage of adult life, at which as sexual beings, we make sexual choices. Sexuality should have no boundaries of race, adult age or gender.
