Strangulation to flog perfume: Goda Perfume trivialises male violence against women

Posted on Campaigns by Caitlin Roper · May 08, 2025 2:59 PM

Last week, we called out Goda Perfume for their strangulation-themed perfume ads. Multiple promotional videos for the perfume brand depict a man with his hands around a woman’s neck, apparently in response to her alluring perfume - and the women love it. (Because who doesn't love the risk of neurological damage, stroke or death?)

35 Reasons Why Ad Industry Self-Regulation is a Disaster

Posted on Campaigns by Caitlin Roper · April 22, 2024 10:10 PM · 1 reaction

1. The entire system relies on members of the public making complaints. There is no pre-vetting

This means advertisers can do whatever they want, and their ad will only be reviewed if and when a member of the public makes an official complaint. If nobody complains, the ad will not be investigated. Industry self-regulation takes the onus off the advertisers and instead places responsibility for regulating the advertising industry on individual community members.

This lack of pre-vetting has enabled companies to display billboards depicting gangrape and bestiality, school buses to advertise sex industry trade show Sexpo and the URL for live-streamed porn and prostitution, and Honey Birdette videos of sexual ‘choking’ to be broadcast in Westfield and other shopping centres – along with countless other examples.

Koala protection trumps safety of women and girls

Last year, we wrote again to a number of super funds invested in sex shop Honey Birdette's landlord shopping centres.
