AVN... WTF Man

WHAT THE FUCK AVN

While I appreciate your recent efforts at discriminately mailing your magazine and other adverts, you guys royally fucked up on your GAYVN that just went out. The one I received today.

Today, after picking up my 7 year old son, we go to get the mail. My son gets the mail out of the box as he does everyday. Right on top is your newest advert for GAYVN, on the front of this is two topless guys hugged up. This is something no child needs to see an your lack of common sense has me pissed right now. For a company that is supposed to represent the adult industry, I would think that you would take the time and have the care to mail all potentially obscene material with protective wrapping.

You do this for your regular AVN magazine due to people who get the materials at the place of business. Please have the same decency to do the same with the GAYVN materials.

Keep in mind, that a number of us have children at home.

I am not even going to ask why you get GAYVN delivered to your home, but you are right, although I am not sure two topless guys would be considered obscene.

I got the same ad at home today and thought the same thing... I dont have kids but I still like to keep my business personal since I live in a condo complex.

Dont know why I got it... its a add offering a free subscription. My guess would be they used the same mailing list as the regular AVN mag
