Awareness Ads with Punch - The Cowards' Show Against Domestic Violence
The Cowards' Show Against Domestic Violence
 Published: Apr 24, 08
Comments: 4 Views: 1,834

We have been featuring quite a few ads from around the world with strong, often controversial content on TrendHunter.com and the reactions have ranged from shocked to disturbed, with many readers not caring to be exposed to the material. I believe there are some things that need to be continually exposed, as disturbing as they may be, and domestic violence is one of those things.

This tagline on this Spanish poster translates to, “Love that Kills: The Cowards’ Show”

Here is another anti-domestic violence ad:

 

Eastern European Shockvertising - APFR Battered Women Ads

The Association for the Promotion of Women in Romania (APFR is the acronym in Romanian) put out this ad showcasing the plight of battered women in that Eastern European Country.

Love the play on words! But the visual bothers me a little. The scumball boyfriends are wearing hoodies while their girlfriends are all dolled up and oddly, look they're enjoying the beatings. Am I the only one that sees that?

you are right B. the ads gave me a bit of glamour & fake feel. As if the girls are posing for a fashion shoot. Unlike some of the realistic ads TH featured recently. But I guess looking real upsets some people, so the ad agency opted for a sugar-coat. I think most people tolerate shock or nudity as long as its a joke or jest, once the issue is serious they get uncomfortable
