Gym Class Bully

Believe it or not the purpose of this ad probes no deeper than a sorry attempt to get you to purchase a gym membership. Look closely, past the scantily clad nuns and the totally inappropriate mockery of the Catholic Church, and you may find yourself lusting after a hotter body… right?

Well, not exactly. In my opinion, the ad does little more than manage to singly handedly piss off a lot of people. For example, people who chose to devote their lives to making the world a better place. In this ad you can see that these nuns are experiencing impure desires, three of them gawk at a fully naked man while flashing a little leg while a fourth nun peeks shamelessly into the room. It is a wide known fact that nuns are celibate and I believe that the ad is extremely controversial because it pokes fun at one of the noblest professions known to mankind.

Furthermore, aren’t we all getting a little tired of making fun of nuns? Honestly, has there ever been a group of people that deserved it least? I feel like this ad has definitely gone too far. I am not catholic, I don’t even consider myself a religious person but I do respect the religious beliefs of others. I am all about a good laugh but not at the cost of shamelessly mocking something that so many people hold dearly.
