New tv ad with a Speedo clad dad

Post by speedoGopher » Fri Feb 10, 2023 10:38 pm

Saw this ad on TV for the first time tonight. It has a few stereotypical responses to seeing the Speedo but I think the overall idea is he's confident enough in his skin to wear it. I can't think of the last time I saw a commercial in the US with someone wearing a Speedo like this. Maybe a good sign?

Hope this starts a trend. We need more speedo wearers.

Wouldn't bother my kids, either. They have seen me wear them enough times

Unfortunately one Superbowl advert (https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_contin ... e=emb_logo) clearly is steeped in United States shallow, baseless and bullying anti swim brief ignorance. So much for even a dram of actual inclusiveness or tolerance.

lolol, right, Amy Schumer has been blackballed by the real comedians...they don't take kindly to joke stealing.

But, LOVE that commercial. Even the wife, a high power exec type, is like go for it!

Come on Google, technically elementary edits against a simple background, cut and fill. I missed the ad, thanks for pointing it out. Yeah, a lot of prejudice there, but I wouldn't fault photographers for wanting to edit the speedo dudes out of their snapshots. Oh, great football game. Interesting full body coverage, overtly sexy American style at halftime by Rihanna and her floating entourage.
