Monitor women

So I saw a thread a while back about women being used on the product images. They basically told the guy to speak to customer services, and that the mod would raise it internally.

Just sitting here looking at monitors and my 6 year old lad is seeing pictures of women draped over cars etc.

Do you think we could sort this out? Like sooner rather than later.

I'm not 16. And even if your target customer base was, it makes no difference.

I don't think I need to go into why this is unacceptable, but happy to educate anyone that thinks this is Ok.

Thanks RJC.

And I think that is a little harsh ANDARIAL There is no need for sexualized images of women on monitors to sell them. And just because you can see worst elsewhere doesn't make this more correct. This pictures are not bad bad, I get that.

Anyway, I've voiced my concerned, I'm not campaigning for it, as I do have a life and other things to do, I've said what I wanted to say.

Have a Happy Christmas.

Ha. Ok. I really do think it's a bit off.

It's the lizard brain marketing I don't like.

Really? Wow.

I don't think in binary extremes thankfully.

Advertising like this is dated. A well known hosting provider did it and finally got rid of the women...

Anyway.

Probably enough said already.

Happy Christmas

Yeah I'm a little confused by the harsh responses, I was merely commenting on the marketing imagery for a UK leading computer supplier.

Anyway, I'm checking out of this thread as I really wasn't trying to push any oppressive agenda.

Apologies if I rubbed anyone up the wrong way.
