Shake Weight: Head Out of Gutter
This here is an advertisement for the Shake Weight product, aimed at promoting women's health everywhere. Now, this advertisement is not aimed at the female population obviously, unless they are buying the shake weight with the same purpose as buying lingerie. The sexual induendos in the ad are the biting point moreso for gag gifts and husbands who wish to watch their wife work out in style... and what's in style is looking like you are sucking two guys off simutaneously.
Or was this intially part of the plan? Because the inuendos are so obvious, especially in ads like this, it makes us laugh. The item became so popular it was featured on an episode of South Park, and at that point it's notoriety skyrocketed. Due to the ridiculousness of the product and the ads, it's now a very known product on the market.
Perhaps it's known for all the wrong reasons, but the advertising company was successful in getting their product known in the market.
