Well, I've seen enough "buy this product, get this chick" type of advertising to recognize that what I've read about this one so far is plenty to convince me that it's the same type of crap. We put down women who use up educational resources (supplied at least in part by taxpayers) to go husband shopping, why not have the same disdain for a man who is drawn to a college for it's amorous extracurricular activities? My disgust is for the college that will try to market to that kind of man.

I suppose that some sleazy lawyer will even use the advertising in the defense of some campus date rapist. I'm not too sympathetic to feminists, but isn't there some common ground between liberals and conservatives that using sexuality to sell something that is totally unrelated cheapens us all?

We? Do you have a mouse in your pocket? I don't have any objection to women pursuing their MRS degree.

"I suppose that some sleazy lawyer will even use the advertising in the defense of some campus date rapist."

huh? I can't imagine any judge with even a nodding familiarity with the rules of evidence would ever admit such a thing into the record.

"I'm not too sympathetic to feminists, but isn't there some common ground between liberals and conservatives that using sexuality to sell something that is totally unrelated cheapens us all?"

Sexuality? C'mon, the card shows a guy talking to girls, fergoodnessakes! If you think that's scandalous and sexual, you're certainly entitled to your opinion. I just think it's much ado about nothing.
