Coles Now Selling Adult Magazines At Children's Eye Level

I was appalled on a recent trip to my local Coles. As I wandered towards the check out, I was surprised to see a Maxim Men's Magazine with a Topless Women on the front sitting right at children's eye level. I am appalled that these magazines have sneaked their way into Woolworths and Coles, who are now selling pornography magazines as if they are a common household item. I have complained to Coles but am yet to hear a response.See More

"Thank you so much for blogging about this. This is just awful. I will complain online as well. I'm surprised Centre Management at all our shopping centres have no rules as to the sexual images and posters that can be displayed."

Adult Magazines at Service Stations

Hi Everyone,  Last week I was annoyed when walking into my local BP as I was confronted with Adult Magazines right at the entry, stacked from the ground up - in other words, right at children's eye level. I asked the sales lady if perhaps these 'Adult' magazines could please be moved away from children's eye level. She said "You know what? I completely agree! I have 3 kids of my own and I hate that these magazines are here." She then when on to say unfortunately she can't move them and neither…See More

Hi Everyone, 

 

Last week I was annoyed when walking into my local BP as I was confronted with Adult Magazines right at the entry, stacked from the ground up - in other words, right at children's eye level.

 

I asked the sales lady if perhaps these 'Adult' magazines could please be moved away from children's eye level. She said "You know what? I completely agree! I have 3 kids of my own and I hate that these magazines are here."

Brisbane radio station announcer strips to raise money for hospital

Posted on November 30, 2010 at 7:30pm 0 Comments

This morning Brisbane radio station B105 had their breakfast announcer Camilla strip off her clothes to raise money for the Royal Children's Hospital.


Turning a generous, charitable event helping sick children into a sexual objectifying women event. They encouraged people to donate so she would take her pants off after she had removed her top.


I am unsure how to complain about this one except view their website…

Woolworths and Coles pornography magazines

Posted on November 8, 2010 at 8:00pm 1 Comment

It has recently come to my attention that both Woolworths and Coles are now selling pornography magazines.


Can we please rally together and complain? Surely we have a right to go to our local supermarket without being bombarded with sexually explicit images. Woolworths have magazines such as Zoo and Ralph displayed in the biscuit aisle of my local supermarket. I think it's a disgrace.


This will teach the next generation that sex and women are…
