It’s a bit like this, 90% of mountainbikers are men. Most of those will find the ad eye catching. So knog are just appealing to their target audience. Clever Knog, if not a bit lazy. But it’s really no different from Coke. 90% of fat biffers who drink diet Coke are women, hence the advert with the topless man.
You don’t work in advertising do you.
Having looked at the pic, expecting to see a girl’s bum barely covered by the barest (!) minimum of skimpy Lycra, I was somewhat nonplussed to see a pretty substantial pair of black denim shorts more or less like a pair of cut-off jeans. Sorry, but WTF is the fuss about? Bloody hell, get a sense of proportion for heavens sake. I regularly see young women walking and riding wearing little more than that, it’s what girls wear. There’s nothing sexist about it.
the only difference with this pic is they are wearing complete jeans, if they’d hacked the legs off there would be no difference. Two words: mountains, molehills.
Like buttocks, there are two sides to every story: they’re from Melbourne. Lots of people dress like that and ride bikes around. I live there, i see it all the time. I therefore lazily accuse the OP of cultural misunderstanding.
There are things I care about, and I reply to. There are things I don’t care about, and I don’t reply to.
You tazzymtb, apparently, reply to things you don’t care about, odd.
I can’t see the ad, so can’t comment on the sexisticity of said ad, but their lights do look crap.
