I used to work in advertising, and above all there is one universal law: sex sells.

We're sitting here discussing PETA and their campaign. This is what the campaign is designed to do. They've massively successful because of this.

I'm not hypnotized by these ads because I have a healthy sexuality. I don't become a drooling moron because I see a naked woman.

I'd also like you to define "decent" in pure, objective terms.

Hey, it's their call. Couple of scandalous pics will get the job done.

Although they did go overboard with the veggies ad... and the Catholic one made me giggle.

"Decent" meaning appropriate for everyone to see.
These ads aren't exactly for everyone's eyes.

Sex may sell, but I know any decent-minded person won't buy into that.

The veggies ad was the worst one of them all.

Again, you use a subjective word "appropriate". There are no objective standards of what is "appropriate" and/or "decent".

If you're worried about children seeing these things, then you should be bitching at the parents for not keeping enough of an eye on the little buggers. These ads aren't being placed in Highlights or Disney Adventures.
