    Everyone knows that sex sells, so how much does sex appeal lure you into buying a product? Do clad models, and/or sexually suggestive ad campaigns, ever inspired you to buy into what's being sold?

    It's early & the coffee's not ready yet but I can't think of many times they've used scantily clad guys. Calvin Klein type models don't especially appeal to me. But if they were good looking it would get my attention though.

    Just the opposite. If something tries to sell me with sex, it DECREASES the chance that I will buy the product. If a product has to resort to sex, then that reveals to me a belief that they don't think that the product is good enough to win me over on it's own merits.

    Suggestiveness is o.k. but it does not necessarily influence my decision to buy something. I usually buy what I want.

    Nah....all that orgasm while washing the hair/"I'll have what she's having" don't sway me. Don't need pretty people frolicking to convince me that I want to buy a certain soap or shampoo.

    I'll enjoy the ad but probably won't be able to remember the name of the product.

    Not one iota more than regular advertisement does, in fact maybe less.

    Sometimes I can appreciate the nuance, but I can't remember when a provocative ad ever swayed my decision to buy something I wasn't already interested in.
