Controversial Advertisments

[Image embedded from website]

This advertisement for D & G's spring/ summer 2007 collection was pulled from circulation after both the Spanish and Italian governments demanded a withdrawal because the ad represented this woman in a situation that had elements of violence against women, and a submissive woman in the hands of male domination.

I completely agree with these statements. What message are we sending to the public here? D &G labelled the objections "a bit backward". Should we be moving forward to male domination and violence?
