I came across this advert the other night. Whats going on here ? Two women fussing over a little dog while a black guy looks on. Is he a boy friend ? They seem totally absorbed with the dog. Well we have all the ingredients that a modern advert demands. But wait, there is a fly in the ointment ! The advert is for a home security device. Suddenly the women being observed by the black guy as they fuss over their fluffy dog tells me that maybe this advert is subconsciously suggesting a fear of crime. Two women and a little dog suggests vulnerability. I burst out laughing when I realized this. I think this has been done on purpose, but in a very clever way that many may not even be aware of,but meanwhile deep in the mind...
The way he's pictured, as if he's gazing on them without them being aware.
