Hardee's commercial

[visionary]

Promoting bestiality with a young man losing a bet with his friend and next scene shows him sitting at Hardee's with a "bride" goat and his friend taunting him about his new "hot" bride.

Acceptance comes after saturation..

The bet was in poor taste, but it was not about bestiality, but about humiliation. Bestiality is sex with animals. The bet was about dressing up a goat and being seen with it in public, and being subject to "in love with something ugly" jokes.

It was not a commercial I would have been run with, but it is a far cry from being illegal, or even immoral. Just sophomoric. But then again, sophomoric frat boys may be Hardees' target audience.

Hehe, uptight much?

I don't know whether to laugh or to point the bone

I would not have assumed that is meant beastiality either and that seems to be an accurate take on it, but now I have to ask what exactly is Hardee's?

I made a mistake.. it is Arby's commercial.

 

[flicka]

It's funny. And not about sex. Although I do realize that some people always end up thinking about sex regardless of the situation. That seems to be the bigger problem.

 

[OllieFranz]

Hardees and Arby's are Fast-food restaurant chains similar to McDonald's and Burger King. Like the other two, Hardees serves mostly hamburgers, Arby's serves thinly sliced roast beef on an onion-flavored hamburger bun.

again I say acceptance comes after saturation

again I say acceptance comes after saturation

Sex with animals is already legal in some European countries normally with the provision that the animals aren't harmed. I.e. you can't force them to have sex against their will or damage them in any other way.

My view is that if the animal, say a dog, initiates sex with it's owner, and the owner wants to go ahead with it, as disgusting as that may seem to you and me, I can't see anything wrong with it.

Maybe you should put that on a bumper sticker.

visionary, how are you reading bestiality from this? I can't believe you're such a pervert.

It all starts out with innocence or as a joke....it is such a slippery slope..

There was a man down the street who "liked" his dog so much he perpetrated her... People thought it was sick and very wrong... but if it is continued on media at every turn.. then people start asking themselves what is the problem.. since they have seen so much of it.... over time.. saturation point is reached and acceptance comes and no one sees the problem anymore.. but have taken the position that there is nothing wrong with it

It's a hard one to call, that one, as you wouldn't be able to tell if the dog was willing or not, but what if a male dog penetrates either a female or male, what's the problem?

 

[SiderealExalt]

Are people seriously getting upset over a bloody commercial...

/facepalm

Priorities much..

 

[Caitlin.ann]

I thought it was cute and the goat did look pretty pleased with herself.

 

[SiderealExalt]

I'm just glad to know I can if I want to, go to Arby's and only spend around 5 bucks.

ohhh that is so sick... most animals know better than that.. unless they have been mistreated [in a sexual manner]. Animals know by instinct that you do not cross species.
