How on earth is this a positive message it certainly leads Rape in a positive light, I can understand them wanting to give more help to victims and let them know they aren't alone, but this is just ridiculous :lol:

I saw that on a billboard at Clapham Junction when I went past on a train and was sure I'd misread it.

I thought I saw this poster going down an escalator on the underground on Friday. I did a double take but had already passed it, I just assumed I'd read it wrong. strawberry floating ludicrous :lol:

Though I should have expected it from the people who did another advertising campaign of girls in T-shirts that say "Wake up to Rape" :fp:

Of what? A rugby player (or a "real man") getting raped?

Hate the advert.

Yeah, rugby is associated with GRRR! REAL MAN! and the nail is like a penis that causes damage and deflates it.

I can see where they were going with it, good advert worded badly.

It just makes me want to shag a rugby player (with their consent to be clear!)

A smooth egg being passed between filthy, angry, chubby hands as sweaty, fat men take turns slamming you into the ground while a ruck of his pals push him on? Is this rugby or a George Michael video?

I think it portrays its message well.

It's saying anyone can get raped, even "real men" but talking about it still takes a hell of a lot of strength

Nah, it's trying to say that, but what it can be very easily interpreted as is "To be a real man, you have to get raped".

If I said "Real men drink beer", you'd interpret it the same way that most people interpret that poster. It should have a "too" on the end.

Hit the nail on the head. A man gets raped once every 45 minutes I think, and most of it goes unreported.
