What don't they try on TV that they don't attach sex to?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) September 18th, 2010

Is it me or does it seems like sex is used to sell 90% of goods on TV commercials? I sat there in Primetime and studied all the commercials that came on in between the shows I was watching. Most had some type of sexual overtone or sexual double untendered. I seen sex used to try and sell me burgers, breath mints, snacks, shave creams, ED pills, etc the ED pills are a given. I started to wonder what didn’t they try to use sex to sell? I could come up with a few, but not many, pharmaceuticals, bail bondsmen, hemorrhoids, hospitals treatment, auto repair, pet food, and I have to really think about what else. What would you add to the list of things they try to sell 95% or more without the use of sex? Yes, sometimes they do use sex to sell cars……..so……….
