An Inappropriate ad

This ad was for the Sega Saturn video game console.  This video game console was made by Sega.  The Some video game websites, have labeled this ad for being "sexist".  I typed in Sega Saturn inappropriate ads in, Google image search, and this was the first image that came up.  Jean Kilborne might say this ad promotes pornography in the video game industry.  This ad for the Sega Saturn can be risque depending on your interpretation of the video game ad.  Sega had very perverted and inappropriate advertisements in the 90s.  Sega was very perverted in marketing the following, game consoles: Sega Game Gear, CD, 32x, Saturn, Genesis; and the Sega Dreamcast.  Also, this gives male gamers a false sense, that console can be depicted as a women, would want to have sex with a video game console.  A female "girl" gamer would get offended at this advertisements for the Sega Saturn.  Sometimes video game ads can sound and even look wrong.
