Re: Shocking advert in April edition [Re: TFG]

So the adverts have been there for ever and a day, I've only been a reader for a few months.


Its obvious what the illicit affair one is for, there's no 'think' about it, its why people have found it objectionable.

I can't comment on the rest of your post because it really has me puzzled, I know you're saying something but I'm at a loss as to what it is. I think its probaly better that I am.

I occasionally have a nosey around some decent online dating (seeking partner, or marriage) sites




you go girl!

I know loads of people who met via such agencies ... and ... wait for it ... I met my (almost) perfect husband on such a site!!

I'm a bit amazed at the ad in W&H though! pretty poor taste I must say, but I'm not offended by a sex toy advert in the magazine. Some women who would be embarassed to buy a sexy magazine may be thankful to find one in W&H.

I have just caught up with this thread. I've noticed that agency advertising all over the place - it shocks me everytime because I just think what it is doing is completely wrong. Call me old fashioned, but this isn't the promotion of a bit of fun for people who are missing something in their marriage, it's making money out of heartbreak and betrayal. Why ANY magazine would promote this activity is beyond me, let alone W&H. For anyone who is offended, I would suggest writing into the magazine to protest. I know I will!
