WW/BM in advertisements

I saw these from Time Out New York and decided to just start a thread on the topic.

 

Levi's TV Ad

 

Wait, what? Free, cheap and easy dates???? The dates per se or the people???


Wanna rep U XOXO, but I cant:-(

 

I like where this is going...

 

It's an article on free and cheap dates in New York since shit is so expensive.
They are just showing this couple going on such a date.

 

A Hallmark commercial I saw today:

Looks like marketing departments are actually taking notice of demographic changes in American society.

 

I know, I just thought the header was free for interpretation as written. I got a chuckle over it.

 

It's that you in your avatar?

 

oh no bm ww in ads tis teh "psychological warfare" (according to some people)

 

Out of curiosity, is that Hallmark commercial playing around the country?

I particular want to hear from people in the Midwest and South.

 

LOL, never mind the fact those couples actually exist, OMG who would have thunk it.

Heaven forbid they are actually shown.

 

This Midwest (though in my opinion I'm closer to "Mideast") person hasn't seen it before, but I don't watch TV much.

 

??? ????!!!!!!!!!!!

 

This is a problem Brittannia, you need to watch more TV, at least 7 hours a day.

 

Yes, it was..... in a 20lb lead vest.

 

LoL, I coincidentally saw it just last night after I got offline. I decided to watch The House Bunny movie because Anna Faris cracks me up and during commercials it came on. Go figure.
Anyway, I don't really know how I feel about seeing all these white women with black men couples on TV shows, commercials, and movies. Part of me feels like they're making it like the new fad and that it could abate genuine black men and white women relationships to others outside of the relationship (I shouldn't care, huh?) because they're "the vogue" now. I can picture little teenage white girls, "Oooh, I gotta get me a black guy so I can be like those couples on TV." :smt095

 

I rather welcome it,. If I'm in a pharmacy, the mall, in a restaurant, walking down the street in New York City you see black men and white women together. The more it is out there maybe simpletons can stop acting like its 1950's Natchez, Mississippi when it comes to interracial.

 

Agreed.

 

Yeah, I guess I'm just being a gloomy gus. :smt102
