To take such offense at such a trivial slight on public morals is usually driven by the blue rinse dowager brigade. Female retirees who are routinely offended by the world moving on from the puritanical double standards they used to pretend to live by.

While I think that used to be the case, SM, having looked at Wendy Francis's Facebook page it's pretty clear that this confected controversy is part and parcel of a Fundies First Senate aspirant's tilt at the next election.
Ms Francis is of course entitled to promote herself and her prudish ideas, but it would be a far better look if she and her supporters were slightly honest about what they're up to. Posted by CJ Morgan, Tuesday, 11 May 2010 8:20:46 AM

I’m sure CJ Morgan has made his posts so as to carry out his usual name-calling and abuse of other posters, this time labeling them “godbothers”, and then calling others “fundies” and "prudish" etc.
How he was once a teacher is quite frightening to think about, although there are many teachers like him currently in the system. They try to hide their inability to teach and put forward a good arguement by name calling and abuse of the students or their parents. I would welcome new posters. Looking at the record of the ABS, they approve just about anything, http://www.adstandards.com.au/pages/casestudy_a.asp However, ultimately the advertising company that developes an ad should be made to display their name on the advertisement. Displaying the name of the advertising company that created the ad, as well as displaying the product name would let the public see who not to contact in the future.

Mum of 4,
<<We are living in a sick and twisted world where "that which is wrong is called right and that which is right is called wrong".>> Spot on. The CJ's of the world describe this as progress. Posted by Proxy, Tuesday, 11 May 2010 8:49:52 AM

I await Wendy's flunkies participation in other topics on OLO concerning sexual exploitation. There is an interesting thread just started concerning the mutilation of female genitalia.
http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=3632 Ironically this topic was started by Proxy. For reasons that are clear to anyone astute reader. Perhaps these concerned ladies could acquaint themselves with many of the attitudes towards women on Foxy's thread: http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=3592 While I deplore the use of sex to sell anything from beer to cars, I don't see this billboard as the font of all evils, while women and children are sold as sex-slaves. Or denied access to education or other rights that are regarded as an entitlement here in Australia. Interesting to note that Wendy et al are not concerned at the possible reaction of young girls to the sight of the 'sexual' billboards. Posted by Severin, Tuesday, 11 May 2010 9:44:04 AM

Nice to see I'm getting up the noses of the sockpuppet trolls. Keep it up, boys - with vocal supporters like you Wendy's disingenuous campaign is heading right where it belongs.
