Saying sex sells is bullshit Sex never sold anything to anyone. People buy sex, not the other way around. -PT Alcove Read it nice and slow, I'm inclined to believe him. thoughts? |

this for some reason makes me wonder if sex-phonenumbers actually would accept a collect call.. |
||||||||

well, the saying "sex sells" implies that you can sell almost anything if you larder it with sex. so if people buy sex, you can sell things better using sex. so yes, sex sells. |

Yeppers. I agree. |

hahaha tell pt alcove to shut up and get a better pen name.. nothing could be further from the truth |

i'm currently studying graphic design (which includes advertising) and sex does sell... anyone with half a brain knows this. Who is PT Alcove? |

I think I can paraphrase: "sex sells is bullshit, you buy sex" I mean, you buy what you buy, sex can't force you to do anything. Everyone complains about sex being used to market things, but that is because people want sex. Blaming sexuality is pointless then, people buy sex. Not the other way around. |

people buy sex because it is being used to sell, therefore sex sells :) |

The fact that people other than 12 year old girls buy Britney Speares albums is proof enough. |

LOL good example! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

true but i think i know what blatant means, more like sex itself can't do anything, it can't do things like walking, selling etc. so in that way it's people who are selling and buying sex.. ..? what the hell kind of topic is this anyway??? :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

well obviously.. following that rationale NOTHING sells itself.. which everyone should know.. it shouldnt have to be explained to pt alcove that these things/concepts/images don't actually go out and market and sell themselves.. it's just an expression sex sells and lesbians equal ratings |

you could be right I just agreed with his rational that seems to say, instead of blaming sex, and the companies that use it to market, shouldn't we be looking deeper? this deeper being that people want sex. it's not being forced upon them, they are asking for it, so blame the public for the sex in the media. where these kids come from is beyond me, quotes just get passed to me. |

PEACE SELLS... BUT WHO'S BUYINGHAH!!! ROCK! |
||||||||

goes w/o saying. of course it does, thats why its used. duh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but even when people want to buy sex, that means sex still sells. so, sex DOES sell. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes... sex sells! if you sell sex some one will buy it! (uhhh.. well maby not from you, but my point beeing; sex DO sell!) and yes sex (or the possibility of it) can make, at least me, do stupid things when the pub is aboute to close. |
||||||||

|
|
sex sells, obviously... things sell better when they have sexual undertones, or even blatent sexual messages, linked to it... |

>on the front, they hide that they like it, people wear clothes I don't know about you but it's 2(degrees symbol) farenheight here and...I'm too lazy to finish this sentence. |

Offcourse it sells. The marketingboys found easily how to turn on peoples hornymaker. It's sometimes ridiculeus how sex is integrated in a commercial just to show as half a tit. |

sex sells, yet it is illeagel to sell sex |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if someone (a) is buying sex and nobody is selling sex then someone (a) is being silly sex is good if you want to sell more of anything (britney was a great example indeed) but sex itself sells great too |
