Tom Ford Advert Banned

photo from frillr.com
Labeled as "Markedly Vulgar", this specific advert for Tom Ford sunglasses was banned by an Italian Ad Organization. "...Transcends the limits of simple bad taste and offends the sensibility" of a viewer (from frillr.com). Another Advert from the same campaign was not banned however, featuring a woman grabbing some guy's crotch. I'm not sexist or anything, but what the heck?
The way I look at this ad, I see an empowered woman biting off a guy's fingah, nothing degrading about that. (Upcoming cliche) That's ART.
