Ads from a gay cruising site will not be banned in The Netherlands. Despite a number of complaints against the gay app Squirt, the Dutch Advertising Standards Board (ASB) has ruled in favor of the site and will allow the campaign to continue reports Pink News.
Squirt had put up the large signs and posters at major train stations across Rotterdam, Amsterdam Utrecht and The Hague. According to the report the ASB found that the ads met “the necessary precautions … in the context of good taste and public decency.”
It adds that while the models are topless, they are not “shown in a sexually provocative pose” or “suggesting any sexual acts”.
