Here’s that Confused.com “blowjob” ad – and will it be banned?

Some of the comments about this Confused.com “blowjob” ad. Watch it and tell us if we have got it wrong.

The ASA has already received 20 complaints about the ad, mainly for it being “offensive, distasteful,” and “suggestive of sexual activity,” an activity known as “dogging.” This is what Joby Russell, marketing director of Confused.com, said about the complaints: “Admittedly, the woman is somewhat startled by Brian appearing in the car window, having been sorting out her shoelace.”

My o/h has just seen this ad and was so shocked he pressed rewind to see if he’d misunderstood. He then rewound it again and asked me as I hadn’t seen it before and wasn’t watching, before rewinding it AGAIN and asking eldest DD (18) Cue family discussion and giggling. General consensus to the question “blowjob” ad….YES

I assume so. I saw the advert last night, is it shown during the day?  In my opinion it’s “below the belt”, literally.

I’m so glad it’s not just me…..the first advert at the car boot sale when Brian says “I’ve been pleasured” and the old lady responds “by?” I thought was a bit dodgy and laughed a lot… Because the robot replies with “bye bye” DH said I had got the wrong end of the stick and it was an innocent play on words hmm
Can not wait to point out the blow job one too him!  Still adult humour or not they are better than the old confused.com advert jingle that used to ear worm me every time I heard it. smile

She looked more like she was trying to reach something from the foot well on her side. It looks too awkward an angle for blow job. I suppose it may have been aired after the watershed because of what people may be thinking.
