man vs. woman:




a fantastic ad campaign for goldstar that was run in restaurant/bar restrooms.  a bit genius... ok graphically yes; politically, not so much.

Or a bit offensive. A bit.

So...women aren't supposed to drink beer I guess.

Yes, thank god you're a man who only has to deal with urinals, as you read this behind a toilet.

Degrading is not quite the right word.

jesus. it's a design blog. this probably had something to do with the design, rather than the content.

wow, I can't see the reason for the negative crits really...It's a mockery of how men think rather than an attack or slight against women. After 12 years of working in bars/nightclubs, I easily see the intelligence in this.

Wow people need to chill out!!! If there is anything offending about this, its the lack of pants in the 3rd picture =(

Women allways say that men are so much simpler than them. This campaign says the same.

Yes - men are simple, women are complex.

If you're offended by that, you most likely have the complex mind of a woman ;)

(or you might be a gay man... )

it's not all that "awesome" design wise either. I wouldn't say it is championing the idea that women are complex either. at best this is a student level attempt at advertising. sorry, just being honest.
