Using that same logic, NOT including an image that is considered "hot"
by one sex or the other must then mean that we are tacitly send the
message that those who are viewing are likely to be asexual, that this is
"asexual space". And some asexual people might get offended.
I've never met an asexual person. Are they are big market segment these days?
On the flipside. I would rather see a sexy image than a violent image and
as nearly all professional music these days is targeted at human sexuality
- Love/Sex being interchangeable in the modern Pop music lexicon - maybe
they should have more sexual images on their marketing material if they
are trying to get to the kind of people who are making that kind of
music...
