On the table are two glasses of milk. This is one of the most powerful
images in the ad. I believe they are there to counteract the sexual overtones
and idea of risk-taking in the ad. Milk is included as if to say, "Even though
these two young people are probably going to have sex when the game is finished,

Fetishism
Words: 957 - Pages: 4.... that fetishism was a result of some childhood fantasy or exposure that
resulted in the fetish but he later changed the view. Freud later theorized
