Naked woman deemed inappropriate for kids
From the New York Post: "Brooklyn parents, who were hot and bothered by a billboard featuring a naked blonde across the street from an elementary school, have won their fight to have the sign taken down. A spokesman for FlashDancers, a Manhattan 'gentlemen's club,' said the billboard across from PS 133 in Park Slope would be removed...""He blamed society for a double-standard on adult material: 'That sign is less risqué than the ads on city busses.'"
"... the stiletto-wearing woman ... offers a come-hither look as she stares down at kids in the school playground."
Councilman David Yassky ... called it 'totally inappropriate' ..."
"'Wow, look at the hot lady,' said one 9-year-old boy..."

What would they say if/when an American Apparel--and the oversized ads of cute hipsters in skivvies--opens in the neighborhood?

More like "Naked Porn Woman Deemed Inappropriate for Kids."
I mean, there's naked and there's naked. This is clearly an ad for a strip place -- the woman's expression and her lucite stilettos might be part of the problem, not just her nudity. -
Right after being gobsmacked by that monster lady, I saw the billboard for me. If you look to the left as you get off the Manhattan Bridge, Brooklyn side, there's a guy eating a sandwich and the ad is for VEGANS. Appealing guy, nice background color - no eye assault.
And you're right, the problem isn't nakedity - it's creepy soul-killing content.
(I know you didn't say nakedity. I did. I know it's silly.)
Howdy, Stranger!
