"man-boobs"
i work in advertising. every week we receive many comments from “the public” about our ads – about the message, the topic, the creative.
we, the employees, usually don’t see these letters, however, a recent story appeared on our intranet with a few choice examples. i am now able to share them with you.
[your] ad's are very effective on Global Warming but the man in the video is distracting. He has "man-boobs". I thought at first the ad was going to claim that global warming was going to cause men to develop man boobs. You should either find someone else to do the ad or have him put on a different shirt.

I hadn't realized that "global warming" propoganda [sic] now consitituted [sic] something fit for the [your company’s] interest. I'm afraid another trusted brand has been hijacked. It's sad.

Is there anything that the [your company] can do to stop the degrading Polish Jokes? These jokes are meant to put down and humiliate Poles and Polish Americans and have no place in the United States in 2006. Of all the ethnic groups for which there are derogatory names, many people believe that it is perfectly acceptable to openly call Poles "Pollocks" or "Polacks." I believe that Archy Bunker had a big part in letting ignorant people think that was o.k. to openly call Poles derogatory names and making them subject to any dumb joke under the sun. Fortunately, Archy the Bigot is no longer on mainstream television, but unfortunately his legacy continues on. Please do something to stop this obnoxious and harmful bigotry from being so openly spread and perpetuating in the United States. Thank you.

Have you seen the new commercial for Mohegan Sun Casino. It is a large man with large man-boobs who is covered in seaweed and talking about how relaxing a massage there is. The whole time I saw the commercial the only thing running through my head was "what a brave man--on TV and baring his man boobs"
