Bus shelters were vandalized by religious conservatives or radical feminists. The bus shelters were targeted because of film and store ads with kissing couples and women in bikinis. 14 bus shelters were hit last month, One said: “It seems to be a dedicated group who obviously have some serious issues with these adverts.” The black paint was easy to remove when the vandals noticed the clean bus shelters they started using a tar- like sticky substance which was harder to scrub of. An H&M spokeswoman said: “A picture can be interpreted in many different ways. The interpretation is always in the eye of the beholder.

According to the conservatives among us a woman in a bikini is not something you want to run in to on the street. The biggest part of society does not agree with them. This made me curious ,I would like to know when we think the media goes too far? Did we move our standards because of media like MTV and what happens if we go back in time in terms of nudity and sex in the media?
