Also, sorry to tell you, it's not old duffers like you or I but those they deem have the most disposable income or spending power. I'm not saying we're past it but.... we're past it. An interesting dynamic is why it invariably features white women with black men. Why not black women with white men? Who knows? I might imagine that it has something to do with a cultural history where the sexual power ratio might militate against such unions; perhaps, culturally, it's seen as 'disloyal' for a black woman to go with a white man. That's probably a completely stupid and false stab; I'm only guessing but it's definitely noticeable. On the other hand, it could be, dare I say, that white women just find black men more attractive. I reckon that's what white blokes may fear. But what do I know? I only throw it out there. What do you reckon, Wisbech? This is quite strange. I don't know what you're on but I wish you well on a recovery. Edited by Stirlingsays (30 Nov 2023 10.37am)

I don’t know what the thinking is, but it would be interesting to find out. The ad agencies seem all to be having the same thoughts so there must be a basis for it. They tend to understand these things pretty well. They don't always get it right though. Vauxhall claimed that sales of their Zafira dropped like a stone when they used Griff Rhys Jones as a bearded idiot to advertise it as no-one wanted to be associated with a person like that

Well exactly, but there is a very easy solution to his problem which involves a suitcase, a passport and a plane.

I could, but given your history of asking questions while ignoring those set to you why should I. People can observe the fetish on display for themselves.

The smell of bs does get overpowering here sometimes doesn’t it.
