If You Want to Sell the House, Mow the Lawn
Every gardener loves the satisfaction of creating a well-crafted design on his front lawn with just a few pushes of the old John Deere. Wilkinson and JWT are apparently banking on this love-of-gardening frenzy to transfer to other lawns, those more, ahem, south of the border. Innuendo and subtlety do the trick nicely in this ad for the new Wilkinson Sword for women. Too bad this gardening technique will never make it to HGTV.
The much more subtle US Schick Quattro version can be seen here.

where is my lawnmower
hmmm...this reminds me....I need a lawnmower.
ok, first of all, i think this video is hilarious. i dont understand how someone could say that this is going to destroy a teenage girls view of their body. im a 16 year old male and i guess that means that i might have a biased opinion or a blocked view of the situation because of my gender. but the way i see it is, if you dont like seeing this, dont watch it. if you think it's pretty funny, watch it. if someone who thinks that woman are belittled by things like this, dont watch it. to me, a woman can be shaven or have a ''lawn" and that really doesnt effect my point of view sexually towards a woman. i think that this commercial is a simple way for Schick to make money. i think its harmless.
This was freaking hilarious! I don't know why the people below me were upset by this it's just a song. If teenage girls are dumb enough to feel bad about themselves because of a silly song from a razor commercial then maybe they need to grow up. I am a sixteen year old girl and when I watched this I didn't feel bad I felt like I was gunna die I was laughing so hard... Any other girls who felt belittled by this commercial seriously need to think about seeking professional help.
Agreed, the gods of glamor are at it telling ladies just how to shave down there. leave the ladies alone!!!! Stop with the 'I know it all' menatlity. Not all ladies are fans of the barbie girl shaved look. I like my lady to tbe natural....so sexy!
