Do *you* know the difference?

In one case it is jokingly suggested that animals be mutilated, while in the other (also jokingly) it is suggested ugly women make good-looking men hotter.

In case you don't quite understand the distinction, coming a mere week after the Florida cat killer was arrested, life is destroyed in one case, and someone has hurt feelings in the other. I'll let you think about that one...

No one is arguing the ad wasn't demeaning. My point was, the author was in no position to call for a boycott from some supposed position of superior moral outrage.
