This commercial, banned in the United Kingdom, is pretty racy. On one hand, bureaucratic advertising councils seem overly conservative and rigid. One could make the argument that these councils are a form of censorship. On the other hand, when viewing ads, like this levi’s ad, it is important to think about the scenarios in which the ad may be seen. Children and youth are easily impressionable, and an ad like this, in most people’s opinion is inappropriate for people in that age range.
