A COMMERCIAL QUESTION


*****************
SOME QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS THAT ONLY US FILIPINOS WOULD UNDERSTAND

SKIN WHITENER

See that skin whitener commercial where a bunch of guys on a date with this woman, on seperate occasions of course. And they tell her that they hate dark underarms? And this lady then is embarrassed to show hers? Now what is the story there? Primarily what is her story? And why the comment about the underarm? I have three explanations here. Pick one.

1. She is going out on a date. But that still doesn't address the underarm thing. Dates, and I am assuming these are first time dates, don't really start out with conversations about underarms.

2. She is applying for a job. And it's an interview. But, again, no explanation for the underarm. Except if she's applying to be a model, dancer, or guest relations officer. But are those guys really HR material to conduct interviews?

3. She's a prostitute and the guys are her clients.
