Would you, could you? - offer yourself as advertising space...

Could any of you do this? I mean I've seen guys strip off their shirts (and other anatomy covering apparel) for their favorite team, but I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with my DW using her pregnant belly as an advertising balloon.

Calimama replied: No, I have more class than that. wink.gif

gr33n3y3z replied: yes and no depends

If it was a Aston Martin you bet yourself I would sell a body part to for advertisement and I want the car thats a GREAT trade off but for football ticket nope

C&K*s Mommie replied: I agree with Lisa, if it were for something valuable, something that I could not afford- then I would advertise on my body- yessmiley.gif

For Super Bowl tix, or in our families case tickets to see the Florida State Seminoles at the BSC Championship Bowl then nosmiley.gif

Also, I would advertise on obvious parts of myself, not my belly, or any other body part that no one would want to see anyhow.

My3LilMonkeys replied: As long as the product being advertised was legal/ethical/moral, why not? If my team was in the super bowl I'd do it.


But it really doesn't matter, because 1) the Dolphins will never make it to the Superbowl in my child bearing years and 2) my stomach has more stretch marks than I can count.

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: I agree with Pam. No one would want to see my stretchmark covered tummy. No, I wouldn't do it, I am just not that rabid for any sporting event. Now would I do it to raise money for a charity (big money, like hundred of thousands), maybe.

CantWait replied: No for something as shallow as football tickets. sleep.gif

A&A'smommy replied: thats really dang smart I don't see anything wrong with it, i think its gorgeous!!!

MoonMama replied: Depends...I can think of some events I'd do that to get tickets too. emlaugh.gif emlaugh.gif

Nina J replied: Not for football tickets. Maybe for something else.

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Yup... pretty dang smart of her. I'd do it for tickets to something I really wanted to go to. Why not. cool.gif

I'd actually feel sorry for the people who had to see it more than I'd feel "trashy" for doing it. laugh.gif

stella6979 replied: Sure, if it was for something I really wanted, I would do it. I think pregnant bellies are beautiful, so why hide them? biggrin.gif

Boo&BugsMom replied: Sure! I don't have a single stretch mark either! I wouldn't however do it for Super Bowl tickets, unless they were to give to hubby because I sure as heck wouldn't go. I'd do it for a cruise!! biggrin.gif

Boys r us replied: Oh yes!! and my DH would be thrilled about me capitalizing off of my belly too!! LOL
