Sexualised advertising has a proven negative effect on children. Under pressure for tougher standards, the Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) released their updated Code of Ethics this week.

The Australian Christian Lobby calls on the Federal Government to consider Berlin’s proposed ban on sexist advertising which extends to all images in which women are protrayed as “beautiful but weak, hysterical, dumb, crazy, naive, or ruled by their emotions”.

Calls for the Victorian Government to ban ‘boozy’ billboards are a welcome addition to the national child safe, ‘G’ rated billboard campaign, says the Australian Christian Lobby.

The Australian Christian Lobby welcomes moves to rid New South Wales roads of sexist, obscene and offensive slogans, and urges the government to prioritise the protection of our children from this unnecessary and extremely offensive advertising.

They gloated about obscene images of people wearing only sand shoes that they marketed to children and adults.

Volley Australia should apologise to children and the wider community for subjecting them to highly sexualised advertising to sell sport shoes, according to the Australian Christian Lobby.

The Australian Christian Lobby has called for consistency in advertising standards following the passing of legislation yesterday that removes offensive advertising, like that promoted on many Wicked Camper vans, off Queensland roads. 

The Australian Christian Lobby welcomes the decision by the Advertising Standards Board that Honey Birdette’s Christmas advertising in Westfield shopping centres was offensive and contravened community standards.

The Australian Christian Lobby today welcomed a Queensland Parliamentary Committee’s recommendation supporting legislation that will remove offensive advertising, like that promoted on many Wicked Camper vans, off state roads. 

Have you ever pulled up at a set of traffic lights with the kids in the car and promptly noticed a sexualised billboard that you just hope your kids aren’t looking at?
