Posters on the side of the road as unsolicited advertising for strip clubs should not be allowed.
This advert is disgusting:

Not only does it totally mock Caster Semenye, but it mocks every man and woman in South Africa as well as the poor children who should have the right not to be exposed to these lewd images! Men should have the right not to be seen as having to like these sorts of things, women should not be disrespected by being compared to strippers and children should never be exposed to images like this, when they are still forming their self identity. Girls will grow up to think of themselves as mere sex objects and boys will be encouraged to disrespect women.
Even when the adverts are not overtly lewd, such as the Teazers advert, there is a Mavericks advert on bus shelters that children use (main road Rondebosch) and a House of Rasputin ad on a signboard (corner of Buitengracht and Strand) that openly advertizes these strip clubs. This should not be allowed! Advertising sexual gratification is wrong! It tells people that it is ok to disrespect the rights of others. It tells people that it is ok to go to these places and this is surely wrong. A gentleman would never be seen dead in a place like that because a gentleman would not spend money to have someone else's privates thrust in their faces. This is a disgrace to Cape Town and South Africa! It is unsolicited and should not be allowed! Why should it be ok to pay someone else to take their clothes off? Paying for sex or sexual gratification from someone else is wrong! Let them advertise in pornographic magazines where they are unlikely to offend.
Come on South Africa! Stand up for your right to dignity and respect. If you are a wanker/loser and do not respect yourself, at least respect the rights of others. Ladies, do not tolerate your partners going to places like this. Rather date a true gentleman and leave the wankers to do just that... Men, please respect women. If you are single and do not respect yourself or others, then so be it. Go and pay a fortune on getting sexual thrills from someone who is shallow and fake because you are a loser. But if you are in a relationship, you should not be disrespecting your partner by getting sexual gratification from somewhere else. If you are not sexually gratified by your partner, then work on bettering this part of your relationship instead of going elsewhere. Be a role model for your children and other men. Choose not to go to strip clubs! Choose to love yourself - not necessarily literally :-) - and your partner. Respect others and, most importantly, respect yourself.
Rating 0/10 - get a life!
Surely if Sexpo adverts are banned (thank goodness - literally), these should be too! Write to the mayor and get them removed! E-mail Dan Plato on mayor.mayor@capetown.gov.za
The ASA banned Teazer's Ad - well done ASA and well done SA :-)
