The billboard features a young, half-naked girl, involved in a threesome with a potential fourth 'player' lying on the floor.
When asked about the message behind the ad, Calvin Klein spokesman said its "intention was to create a very sexy campaign that speaks to our targeted demographic."

The person who did the set up doesnt know anything about straight guys...no way would a straight guy put his head on another guys lap for one thing...and whats with the guy on the floor? Is he supposed to be passed out?
The guy on the floor is fantasizing about the other two guys ... and “taking care of himself”.
Shouldn’t the tile be: “Tournante”?
They're obviously gay. All three of them. I'd bet the one 'kissing' the girl ran to ladies room right after the shoot and washed his mouth out.
They would only be outraged if she got pregnant and had the baby.
Oh, that does sound bad, lol! No, it was a school related site and the parents’ forum is down the page from the students’ forum, so being a nosey parent....
Glad to hear it! Some kids are still not being raised by wolves. Seriously, I suspect most women still want a relationship and a family. Men have always been a little more flexible, altho I don’t know many who would want to share a girl with 2 or 3 other guys.
Oh, I thought he got bored watching and fell asleep....
Looks more like the kind of thing God wiped out entire towns for in the Old Testament.
That would be pervs.
One word:
Airtight.
They were creepy but they were also totally awkward. The photog sounded like he couldn’t think of anything to say and the kids seemed to be completely stupid, or maybe just out of their element. If I had come up with that ad campaign, I would be really embarrassed.
It’s only an effective ad if it sells jeans. That remains to be seen.
Lol...at least probably not what calvin klein wants us to believe...
LOL I shudder to think what Calvin wants us to believe!
The only problem with ignoring them is that it creates a response that is even more outrageous in a vain attempt to grab attention. The next ad will be a pre-teen girl completely naked with strategic photo coverage to hide anything too “risqué” .
No need to worry about that young woman - all the guys sure look gay to me
(Not that there’s anything wrong with that - Seinfeld) /s
nothing “cool” at all to us but...to them. Well, it draws attention which they so badly need and require. I wonder why? Seems sad to me but...better them than me. I wouldn’t buy their products and...they are not CHEAP ... well, their ads are but not their products. No way. We like a little more class.

Sounds like situation normal in America.
