Sex in advertising

Advertising is when companies show us pictures or videos of products or services that they want to sell us. Sometimes these pictures or videos show people or activities related to sex. This happens because most adults like to think about sex, and it can make people notice the product or service being advertised. Companies are hoping that if they make their ads interesting enough, adults will remember them, and decide to buy their product.
