Taste the Bush...baaahahahahahaha!!!!

This is hilarious. What a great ad. I can't believe this was pulled.

A provocative ad for an Australian winemaker with the tagline “you can almost taste the bush” has been banned in the U.K. for its obvious sexual reference.

The U.K.'s Advertising Standards Authority ruled that the online advertisement from Australian-based Premier Estates Wine, which used the cropped image of the woman’s crotch with a wine glass in front of it “served to reduce the woman to merely a sexual object” and that the reference to oral sex in the hashtag would be clearly understood, which was in breach of the advertising code.

People need to get their panties out of a wad and laugh a little....

And the ad.....

Strategically placed wine glass = win.

Yes, all the humour is being sucked out of life by the very extreme ethos of political correctness.

Let your hair down, life, learn to laugh a little and appreciate the humorous and the absurd.

Ha....yep....advertising genius I think.

Cute ad. Don't know if you've seen this one. I was surprised it's still airing.

Now if it only tasted like wine..

Wine there isn't made from 'bush', is it?

I thought both videos were amusing, people need to grow up and enjoy a good joke. What is life without humor?

Ha! That had to either be the same ad company or the inspiration for the wine company ad....

Next to religious fanaticism, political correctness taking offense to everything is killing us! At this rate, a sense of humor will be gone from the human race within a generation. I thought the commercial was great! And look....we're talking about Australian wine!

As a Mason, owing to the fact that we manipulate the media, I am much more attuned to picking up subtle sexual cues in advertising than the average person.

Never thought that. Just remembered why I couldn't get a job as a prison guard years ago! Aced the test except for the part where you have so long to look at a picture and then take a test on what you could remember seeing. Failed miserably!!!!

If your answer regarding the picture was 'doobies and PBR cans' I can see why it would have been an issue.

The correct answer (in case you retake this test) is 'career criminals who were not railroaded'.

Subtle? Nothing subtle about THAT mate.

Not everyone caught the wine glass. They may have been too busy staring elsewhere.

Politically correct so no one has their feelings hurt.
