Warning: Do not have sex with this bottle. Granted, after a couple tequila shots you can get me to do pretty much anything ... but Caramba Tequila doesn’t want drunk goggles to make us suck the wrong thing. So, head, er, heed their new ad and only enjoy the worm at the bottom, not the container. [WOW Report]

She looks like she’s hitting a bong in the first ad.

why are there no oral-sex-on-a-woman ads?

Are they intentionally trying to alienate the heterosexual male market? What straight male would buy this product even if they never saw the ad?
I don’t see the positives in this marketing campaign.

Am I seriously seeing this correctly in the ad on the right?? A naked male body with the bottle stemming from his loins? I am a woman who enjoys hard male bodies, alcohol, and phallic items and yet this ad disgusts me. It’s quite offensive.
@skywalk Perhaps the marketers hope the straight male demographic will see this ad and think women must obviously want to suck anything - including this bottle - when in a drunken state and since the marketers have taken away this option with “Suck the lime not the bottle” then, the woman must find a replacement to suck….his penis?

I enjoy sexy ads as much as most guys, but… the first one is just very “WTF?”, and the second one seems to imply that the woman’s drunk… which is really really not cool by me. And it shows a big phallic symbol, also not a real turn on for me.
So, thumbs down.

Thats just gross…
This is so negative of an add…if they were trying to hit any type of demographic, it probably didn’t work out so well.

Wow - is that tacky & stupid. I’d have to guess the ad is aimed at very gullible guys who might think the whole sex thing came with the booze.

They are not going to sell many of these bongs with this ad. Possibly in the Castro District and maybe the West Village.
