LOL!


According to WWD.com some people are offended by the new Dolce & Gabbana advertising campaign shot by Steven Klein because it objectifies men. I hope no one's delicate psyche is ruined by this. I mean men have been through a lot. The men's rights movement and all.

ok ok i'll stop haha. But i think people need to stand back sometimes and realize that these kinds images are meant to provoke and meant to stir up controversy. That's what art is. how would we like it if all our ads looked like this:

(god I wish candy was still 5 cents)

Our brains would collapse in on themselves from lack of stimulation.

I think the second one objectifies men, as well. The little boy is clearly a fruitcake and a bad fisherman.
