I was watching the original Planet Of The Apes late last night on AMC as I nodded off on the couch.
They go to the 1,000,000,000th commercial during the movie, AMC's M.O., and a Trojan ad pops on. I think nothing of it.
It's these two women yakking, and I'm presuming their going to beat the dead advertising horse of trying to make men feel inadequate if they don't use a certain product. You know the type. "MY man uses (fill in penis enhancement/sexual aid), maybe your man should too."
But they threw me a curveball. The women were talking about Trojan Vibrating Touch Finger Massager. The women were in a library (?!?) or some public building, and the jist was that one woman loved her Finger Massager and was trying to convince her friend to try it.
A matronly librarian was eavesdropping, and in a moment designed for maximum creepiness, the middle-aged horn dog extolls the virtues of the Finger Massager to the reluctant woman. They all agree that the Finger Massager is the way to go, and presumably, head to masturbatory Shangri-la.
Did I not get the memo? When did we cross the vibrator Rubicon for TV ads? Granted, it was probably 3 a.m. when this ad aired, but I've never seen that product advertised before, much less by a mainstream company. I don't have a problem with it, but I admit, it caught me off guard.
I suppose it was a pioneering moment. Can pocket *****, **** ring, and inflatable farm animal ads be far behind?
