Is it just me or is all this banging on about diversity in the agency world becoming ever so slightly tedious? Now don’t get me wrong, I love a bit of diversity, and as I have previously stated that Ashley Banjo and the boys can diversify me any time they want.
But this week they are at it again…according to a rather depressed Campaign leader article still only 11% of the world’s creative directors are women. Mind you, they don’t mention the fact that nearly all the big direct marketing – or should I say “customer engagement”? – agencies have sisters at the helm?
Wunderman, tick. OgilvyOne, tick. Lida, tick, MRM Meteorite, tick. The Marketing Store, tick. Havas EHS, tick. Field Day, tick. Of course, it would be nice to have more women doing the pretty pictures and doodles but hey, we’re leading the bloody industry so stick that up your bony arse.
Talking of which, I am afraid I have to report that my very own derrière has taken on a life of its own since I gave up “The Busty Diet, in association with, yes, you guessed it, Pornhub”. And I am still awaiting delivery of my new Doc Johnson’s Great American Challenge, but hopefully will soon be taking a large one for the team.
Mind you, the past seven days haven’t helped much, as I have been out meeting and greeting my people and spreading the Busty lurve all week. First up was a lovely chap, you could call him a print industry legend in fact, although modesty prevents me from naming him of course.
Thing is, when you are out with a printer you know it’s only going to end one way and, yep, you guessed it, the lap-dancing club. Not that I was too popular with the punters or the staff to be honest as I was the only woman who wasn’t wandering around starkers. Diversity in the workplace anyone?
Next up was a fresh date with “the man with the golden tongue”, who made a special trip down just to see little ol’ me again. I know he’s married and all that – in fact his wife is gorgeous – but I do have more than a little soft spot for him.
Still, I am not the sort of girl who is going to stitch up one of the sisterhood by sleeping with her man…what sort of girl do you take me for? No, in fact I am going to get her number off him; I’m feeling some “vagitarian” urges. Is that diverse enough for ya?
