An organization called The Gentleman's Club is posting billboards of what appear to be maturing adolescent girls/women holding a larger-than-life phallus.  These billboards themselves are posted larger than life off major Los Angels freeways for all-and-sundry to see. 

The implications are offensive at the least.  To whom would you suggest a voice of complaint and concern be directed?
 
Bonnie M. of Pasadena, CA

 

   

Dear Bonnie,

Thanks for speaking up about those billboards. My suggestion is that you contact the following:

1.) The leasing agent of the billboard, which is usually listed on the
billboard itself.

2.) The club posting the advertisement.

3.) The city councel person whose district the Billboards exist in.

I hope that helps and leads you to potentially having those billboards
removed.

Good luck,

—Amy
