We could run these commercials during sunday morning cartoons or during the dinner hour...

That's just it -- why 'ad' to it: which is what BK has done, albeit not so graphically.

As for the condom ad you suggest, well I do believe Calvin Klein has beat them to it:

Sexy Marketing: Calvin Klein Jeans drops a foursome orgy on NYC billboards
CNN Newsroom: Blog Archive - Calvin Klein Ad — Too Sexy, Too Much? « - Blogs from CNN.com
Calvin Klein Billboard Ad Features a Foursome, Too Sexy for NY? - Associated Content

Please note a comment on one of the links "Poor guy at the bottom, left alone to self pleasure."

Knowing where this 4 story ad is, I will make a point of not walking there with my youngest child during city outtings.

Well that explains things. We're not like those perverted, transgressive wild-eyed Singaporeans who see humor in things that a proper society takes seriously - like a Burger King ad.

Americans can now relax. They won't have to explain oral sex to their little girls. They can rest assured knowing that their girls will all have a chance to learn about oral sex from the boys at school - probably by the time they're 14 years old. And I hear that most of the boys will even give them free lessons.

Well tell ya what then, get some of the news tapes from then, intersperse them like newsbreaks. Do this for a couple weeks and then answer the 6 year old's question. You may then get the idea.

Thanks

So you have no response. If you're this immature in the classroom I wonder how you survive, my students would have you for lunch. Typical behavior for you, someone disagrees you decide to claim they're reaching and don't know what they're talking about.

your kids wouldn't eat me for lunch lol.. .. they'd eat their lunch in the principals office actually or at their mom and dad's office.. I don't know how well you handle things in the classroom...but I don't tolerate disruptions, especially rude and innappropriate behavior or belittling of others opinions.. we have a great understanding on that issue...
perhaps you should grow up... and suck it up and quit whining...I actually answered your question with a very valid response.. you just didn't like it..
so you thought it wise to question my "experience with kids"... and it just so happened i have kids in my household and I'm a teacher...guess that kind of ruined your premis huh?
quit while you're ahead... and best of luck to you in the classroom.. sounds like you'll need it..

Another typical response from you no, response so let's do some insults. Of course, anyone that disagrees with you is being rude and inappropriate so I would imagine you send a lot of kids to the office if you're in high school and teach a Social Science and are trying to teach them to think. As far as "whining" goes you're way better at it than I am, of course that comes with maturity, you'll get there. Have another experiment for you since my last one was "reaching", offer to teach your sister's kid, who you have no legal responsibility for, about oral sex. Watch the "Mom look".
Have to go to a meeting n risk management. Have an outstanding day.
