If you know your target market is people who sneak a peek at womens underarms… that kind of speaks for itself.
How much are they willing to pay for me to display one of their ads adjacent to my ass?

Meanwhile, Wakino is calling for aspiring models to raise their hands, as it has since embarked on a recruitment drive via its website.
I’m on that like right now!

This ad campaign stinks.

Even if they cannot recruit anyone, the recruitment drive itself has gotten people’s attention and has therefore served its purpose.

What has gone so terrible wrong with our society that we must insist on advertising at every possible moment?
Are non-targeted ads even effective anymore?
Is every waking moment, from cradle to grave, to prioritize consumerism? Perhaps I am naïve but I like to think my value in this society is in what I can produce (tangible or intangible) and not in what I can consume.

Great. At a time when Hollywood just discovered this uncharted territory as a new area to scrutinize, judge and mock (google “Red Carpet Armpits” if you want to lose more valuable life-essence), ads pick up the ball and run with it. Should be good for everyone (including a dear friend of mine who is very self-conscious about her “abnormal” armpits…)

That way madness lies…
If they are charging by the hour, it must be a temporary advertisement.
… released photos on its website showing how this ad strategy could be used by recruitment portals, acting schools, detective agencies and more …
Detective agencies?

Human society. We’re approaching a monoculture in terms of how businesses approach eyeballs as a revenue source. Western society has had a big impact on Asia, and not all of it positive.
