Monitor Listings Page - Why all the scantily clad ladies

[silvagti]

I know the target audience for gaming monitors is predominantly young males but do you the monitors image really have to be so risqué!

It's so bad I literally can't risk viewing it at work for fear of someone catching me!

I mean, seriously, how is this helping me decide which monitor to buy! It's all a bit 1970......

For the record I have no issue with people wanting to view pictures of naked women (or men). It's just that there a plenty of sites on the interweb for that purpose and I don't think OCUK needs to be one of them

I looked at the monitor page for the first time the other day, and was just like oh good lord where am i!?
Know your target audience, the how to guide of selling monitors.

Edit: The casually inconspicuous stretching lady is my favourite!

Sex sells.

In fairness the monitor range is varied between girls, cars, landscapes, games, productivity and even the odd hunk. We're selling nearly 1M in value per month on monitors.

All the monitors with men on portray an unachievable beauty standard of fitness, and imply that all men should be capable fighters or superheroes. This harms the body image of young boys.

Examples?
