Levis Commercials

The first is the ad where the two "sexually charged couple" are invading someones house. Personally I am ok with this one even though it has nothing to do about the jeans, except that they are taking them off to have sex, but you can obviously can tell that they are at least 18 or older.





This one however, I am really not a fan of. Just from the dialogue and the action, the audience gets the impression of what is about to happen. What does get me upset though is the fact that in comparison to the other ad, the actors look younger. Like 14-15 yrs old. Am I the only one who sees the wrong in this???





I randomly choose 4 students, ages 20-26, and they gave their opinion that the first ad was using actors that were 22-24 while the actors for the second ad were possibly 14-16. Yes Levi is trying to appeal to different age groups for their product but I seriously dislike the fact that they are both using sex to sell their product.
