#2. There are two reasons, and I won't reveal them, but they are pretty obvious. (57 1/2)

I apologize for adding this after the fact but if you could include your age (dont have to be exact just a rough idea ie: late 30s early 60s etc) thanks.

It is fairly obvious why I voted the way I did. It's because I'm mid 30's.

Oh you youngsters----like y'all invented and appreciate hot chicks due age alone??? Gimme a break---I'm 61 and growing!

Oddly enough Ad #2 harkens back to Ye Good Olde Days of Hollywood glamour where women who were NOT tattooed, pole dancers or vapid bimbo's willing to display stupid behavior almost beyond belief was NOT "normal" behavior.

However hot chicks aside if I'm looking to buy something a hottie will attract my attention but it plays almost no role in what I chose to buy. I've been tricked by hot gals before!

You gonna share your paper with us by chance? Should make for interesting reading!

I'd share if I hadn't already turned in the one copy I had.

You guys weren't the only source I used and I found that on the whole younger women and guys preferred the ad with the chick and older women and some older guys preferred the simple ad.

My sample size wasn't really big enough to draw any hard and fast conclusions just enough to BS a 3 page paper for a class. ~20 people is nowhere near a big enough sample to say anything with any type of certainty.

Well, sex sells. You're not really reinventing the wheel here.
