Let’s Get Ready To say NO to a NYC billboard for the sake of our children!
My grandmother and mom refused to let me buy Calvin Klein when I was a kid because of that risky Brooke Shield’s Campaign when she was a young girl. Calvin Klein has always pushed the envelope and I have always spent my money elsewhere. Thankfully I live in Wisconsin. I don’t know what I would say to my girls if we were walking in NYC and saw a young girl making out with two boys at the same time and another watching from the floor. This ad is too pornographic for me to even show you on my blog!!! Are all the people from Calvin Klein insane? Is the world made up of 24 year-old marketing managers who don’t understand who pays for your products - the parents!!! Why in the world do you want to alienate them?
Enough is enough - please call 866-513-0513 and tell Calvin Klein how you feel!

This type of advertising is indicative of the times in which we currently live.
Think about what is and is no longer being taught in our schools…
our teen pregnancy rates…
the number of children living in broken homes…
the right of a parent to discipline their child having been taken away…
then ask yourself -
am I wrong to judge this ad …
since it reflects the current standard of society?
I was just in NYC, but - fortunately - missed it.
With moms making 80% of the household spending decisions, it seems like a risk to make such a marketing choice.
And you are right - “voting” (or not) with our dollars is one of the most important ways that we - as consumers - can make our voices heard.
Thanks for the post, Stacey!
