This ad for some aftershave product is creepy from the very beginning, because it features a mountain lion applying aftershave. But during the first few seconds, I was like, “Ok – this isn’t TOO terrible. I mean, it’s an odd choice for marketing, but it’s just a mountain lion, and not really a big deal.”
But then you get to the last couple seconds, and you realize that whatever marketing wackjobs put this ad together are not only promoting mountain lions wearing aftershave, but they are also promoting GAY MAN AND ANIMAL SEX.
Look. I can deal with gay. In fact, I even have a new sassy gay friend, Marcel, who knows the difference between ascots and scarves. But I CANNOT deal with gay men who want to have relations of a sexual nature with mountain lions wearing aftershave. I have my limits.
I don’t think he would be considered gay for having sex with a mountain lion. I can’t remember the name for sex with animals.
And I have NEVER seen a mountain lion with shoulders like that….
But the mountain lion is MALE. Clearly. Because of the aftershave. And the dude is gay, because he’s looking longingly at the male mountain lion.
Inappropriate.
I don’t know. Maybe others can chime in on this. Possibly because he is obviously male but he is still an animal…..Whatever it is, is lame.
Inappropriate is right on!
It would technically be bestiality…
But still wrong.
I just can’t see how this ad would compel anyone to buy aftershave… Somebody in the marketing department needs to be fired. FAIL.
Commercial would have been much better with a chick at the end. From the right.
I’ve tried really hard to figure out how to articulate what I think about this video, and all I can come up with is “WTF?”.
I think it would have made more sense if Christopher Reeve had gotten up and walked at the end.

I think it’s saying, using this aftershave turns you into a pussy.
Just to up the anti, Orangina isn’t an aftershave.
It’s an orange flavored soda popular in Europe.
…. so the gay cougar is rubbing soda on his face. For aftershave. For some reason.
French people are weird.
So now France is linking homosexuality with bestiality?
Say it ain’t so….
Captain and Bob – totally laughed out loud! This video is so disturbing on so many levels. It’s like someone’s bad acid trip!
Guys, this isn’t actually aftershave. It’s an orange drink. I don’t know why he’s using it as aftershave.
I know. Things just got even weirder.
