What the fuck? What marketing genius gave this idea the green light?
The Iberia Airline ad was axed after complaints that the ad was sexist, according to the article on Yahoo! news. I’m sadly not surprised that nobody realized, or perhaps cared, that it was racist as well.
Spanish airline Iberia has cut an advertisement showing black Cuban women in bikinis bottle feeding a baby tourist as he sings “feed me mulattas … come on little mamas, take me to my cot” after complaints it was sexist.
Maybe it was meant to encourage the new “baby tourism” trend? I mean, think of all the babies who would love to see Cuba? It’s an untapped market.
Also: babies need massages, and benevolent “mulattas” should oblige, when asked.
