The local operator of fitness studio ‘Fitinn’ is currently the talk of the town on social media. “Destroy yourself” or “Do you want tits like that too?” were the posters there – so the advertising bar is quite low.
“Haven’t you ever liked it that much?”, “Are you angry?” or “They sometimes have puns, but never so underground,” was the message on platform X on Tuesday evening.
The Austrian Women’s Ring has already filed a complaint with the Advertising Council, as confirmed to krone.at.
Women’s ring locates ‘call to violence’
“Especially in times of a lot of violence, something like this is unacceptable,” emphasizes Klaudia Frieben, the chairwoman of the women’s ring, in an interview. The topics are ‘not only sexist’, but ‘also incite violence’, she even says.
One of the topics – relating to the female bust – has apparently already been taken offline. Will we now back down, despite the attention we have received?
“Fitinn” is currently awaiting an explanation.
