A bogus website that claims to rent out wives and deliver them to homes in boxes has been blasted by women's groups across Belgium. A DVD firm sparked the outrage with its new advertising campaign which promotes the website called Rent-a-wife. The 35-second clip shows a man strapping one wife into a box to be collected and going to the door to find the postman with a new delivery - a smiling blonde who waves through the perspex cover of her box. Among the 9,584 models allegedly on offer to the thrill-hungry husband are Erika, the "intellectual one", who has brown hair, is aged between 25 and 35, talks a lot and can make dinner for your mates.

Not really, Niche advertising could make it work. You could have free-standing ‘impulse sales’ displays at bars and alcohol-allowed dancehalls (do they still have those places), places where the higher end models wouldn’t be so appealing and costly.

“I hate those furry wives I like mine clean-shaven.”
A liberal application of alcohol will take care of that prejudice.

If they have any business sense they expected this response and have a ‘rent-a-husband’ ad in the can ready to air.
I love it when you pi$$ off the PC crowd with a sense of humor.

Perhaps you were thinking it was furry women who were upset about this.

Did you mean fury or are people growing massive amounts of hair over this?
Given that it's probably liberals who are up in arms over this, I'm guessing the odds are about 50/50.

"The Institute for Equality between Men and Women has threatened legal action if DVDPost does not withdraw the advert. The Socialist Party, the Greens and a socialist women's group have all condemned the website." The institute for what???? Sounds like the future with Hillary.

Looks like the folks who think there is a typo in the headline have never traveled to Francophone Europe.
