I just read today that zillions of complaints have made Sainsburys remove an advert for a frock because it said it was excellent for going for a walk or for wearing in the evening.

The complaints were based on the horrific thought that a company like Sainsbury's would encourage women to go out for a walk when it was clearly dangerous for a woman to be outside on her own.

Now this worries me on many levels, some it's an age thing ( why would anyone consider complaining about an advert for one)
But the culture of fear is ridiculous, who wants to bring their daughter up not to be confident enough to go outside?

I see girls in Hungary, walking home, late at night, street lighting nowhere near as bright as it is in the UK, and they haven't got a care in the world.

If you're walking behind them, you don't have to change your route or fall back because they're not scared of you.

DD have you actually read that article?

It's the racist Daily Mail going after "woke" Sainsburys.
There's history there (from memory it was to do with them having a black family in a Christmas ad, there was also something about Sainsburys pulling advertising on that Andrew Neill cesspool of a TV channel, anyway, there's no love lost between Sainsburys and the Daily Mail).

There may well have been "zillions" of complaints, the article quotes, what, four?

We're collectively buying what they're selling when we give credence to anything The Daily Mail says.
