Are These Absolut Ads Inferring Lady Parts?
A friend in the ad business pointed us to these new Absolut ads today, referring to them as, “the female genitalia campaign.” When we got a look at them, we could see what he means but weren’t really sure if that’s what Absolut was going for. What do you guys think? More womblike holes filled with foreign objects for you to scrutinize after the jump.

Really? No. I don’t really see it. I mean, if you’re reading Lady Parts into it, of course you’ll see it, but that ice cube one makes me think otherwise. The only body parts that immediately come to mind are stomach or intestines…and isn’t that where the vodka’s supposed to be? ;)

i think it’s the bottle entering through the birth canal that screams vadge.

hey, this is a bit more subtle than that bacardi rum commercial with the guy pushing a stick into a narrow glass as the camera cuts to a girl in short skirt shaking her butt.

“Implying.” You mean “implying lady parts.”

They’re uterine, not vaginal, which should give us pause. It’s not about just sex, it’s about reproduction, , , or perhaps a return to mama’s safe womb, which is what inebriation is often really about.

So.. does that make the bottles penises? Three fruit, three bottles, one fruit, one bottle.
Penises!
