I was on my way to Intramuros one sober morning and since I was coming from the extreme end of Mindanao Avenue, I had to take one SUV ride from my point of origin to SM City North EDSA first, before riding another one going to Kalaw. (That SM mall is one of the world’s ten biggest!) I’m one person who reads everything I could see – the newspapers, magazines, labels, signs, billboards, and even faces – so there’s no way I would miss that gigantic billboard just atop that footbridge in front of that mall.
This time, the first thing I noticed wasn’t the letters encrypted therein but the three gynormous billboards arranged from top to bottom. Call it a threesome. I forgot seeing a single word at all but I can certainly guarantee they’re another Bench schemes. Those three generous models (Jake Cuenca, Francine Prieto and Bruce Quebral, if I got ‘em correctly) bared too much skin to have their fans (me included) and bulge-hungry
While we may celebrate or pant over those hard-ons and tits, I wonder (I love to wonder!) how they would appeal to the young minds. I may sound like a total KJ right now, but I still think that this new series of Bench ads are excessively unsuitable for public exhibition. Spreading those through magazines like FHM or Icon is perhaps more appropriate. Is Bench running out of ideas to sell more but through sex-inducing images? (That’s something to ponder over this weekend.)

it's Bench Body.
underwear advertisements.
how else would you market underwear?
Hi, I totally got your point, I would've done the same shots with these models had I happened to be in their marketing department. "I was just wondering" (and I can't stress that enough) how they would appeal to the young minds. I'm sure u have at least one young member of your family. But regardless, do u think such pictures with the bulges and all is just, to put simply, OK for the youngsters?
Underwear advertisements, u say? Well, I've seen Jockey's ads, Walker's, and others, but their's never appealed as plain mind-blowing as this - that's both positive and negative. I love the concepts actually, but for a billboard? I doubt it. Sex sells and u know that. I'm actually guessing that the reason u got here is because u want a second look of their naked bodies and the hard-ons. Don't worry man, that makes u one of us. Everybody cares more about seeing them naked, and less about the product. We're matured and I understand that. I'll try to look for a soft copy for u, hang on. Just don't share it with your li'l fellas, ayt? Ciao.
THANKS for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate that.
Hey, Princess Jackie, THANKS for the feedback, too. U've been missed by this blog. HeHe.^^
i blame those billboards for the following:
1) vehicular accidents in edsa,
2) much too much traffic, and
3) the ubergrowing gay demographics
i used to have a thing pa naman for sexy billboards. hehehe
3) the ubergrowing gay demographics
dude. if you were born gay, you're born gay!
billboards don't turn straight people into gay ones just like that.
watch your words. i'm gay. and honestly quite offended by what you said.
@ ruff: your #3 is ridiculous! It's as if YOU blame the 'Illegally Low Jeans' guy for injecting homo genes into your veins? CUM on now!
Vehicular accidents yes... i agree
Totally obvious really..
And yes, they are exposing too much.
Even Guess can't topple the amount of skin theyve shown so far
Hey people, give d nurse a little leeway, perhaps he didn't mean it dat way, ryt ruff? (hehehe)
I must i agree dat billboards sells! and those celebrity endorsers' physics r to die for! but i think bench should be a little more discreet and considerate when it comes to young viewers, much as i, an adult, would like to see these bench ads more often (i'm hurting here but its true!). But please.... dont remove them until i've seen first those gynormous ads, hehehe! Lol!
yah medyo over exposed na rin kahit ung mga chaka nilang model like bruce iniexposed pa nila sna wag na sya ung iba nlng hehe.
