Damn that’s a good ad campaign! Seriously, never have I lusted over jeans so much. And I portrayal– in an AD CAMPAIGN–that doesn’t feel terribly objectifying? (Who else noted the flannel?) Great.
Levis has been airing some “gay targeted” jeans ads on Logo – I’m not sure if it includes this ad but I know that they are using two men more recently (I might assume that is where this ran). I have heard that they run the “straight version” on mainstream television.
So, while good that they at least see us as a unique market force, it seems they also don’t want to be known as the “gay jean.”

This makes me want to buy Levis!
Non-sucko American companies take note- including hot lesbians in your marketing makes other lesbians want to buy things.
(Sidenote: REAL lesbians. Not that french-manicure gay-for-pay crap).

Okay, that was a bad joke.
