I have just died a thousand deaths, but even through that disturbing, and I mean disturbing advertisement, I still want your pedals.
Is something wrong with me?

But seriously, how come I don't get that kind of treatment at home? No strip tease for me? (insert puppy eyes here)

Ok, I've read most of the thread, and I guess this is a good enough spot to jump in. My wife and I have been talking about this, and it's a fucking mess. The problems the FBG phenomenon presents are these.
This is clearly some kind of marketing. Whether it's actually FBG trying to score gear, or as I suspect, something Premier Guitar related, this is marketing, cut and dried. How do I know? I have a bullshit detector, and it never ever EVER gives a false positive. How do you get a bullshit detector? Get raised by a bullshitter and then spend your whole life bullshitting.
While I don't have a problem with sex, or sexuality, even in marketing, it's a question of how that sex got there. When I take my shirt off and shake my tits, it's funny, and I did it because I know my hairy tits are funny. If I thought I could actually turn you nerds on with my body, I might do it.
But FBG seems like puppetry in some ways. If she is just a gal who wants gear, it's a god damn shame that she had to show skin to get it. Gearmandude gets plenty of free shit, because dudes take other dudes seriously. dudes do NOT take women seriously ESPECIALLY in music. Yep, I'm generalizing, suck it. I'm sure there's any number of lovely guys out there who are totally unbiased. except not. Usually we don't even realize we're doing it until it's too late. Even when we men "joke" it shows a great disrespect, and it doesnt really matter if she's real or some fat dude who wants to sell us something.
I don't think there's a real understanding for most males, especially single young-ish ones, as to how sexist the world is. If you really don't believe that women are treated as second class citizens, you need to wake the hell up. These knee-jerk sexually charged reactions are the reason why there are so few women in music.
Though she is certainly inviting some sexual responses, FBG herself is not the greater problem here. Some of the reactions have been pretty gross (more so in the Offsetguitars.com discussion). If we can take a look at ourselves as men and our relationships and interactions with the women around us, then maybe this whole Fuzz Box Girl debacle can be a good thing.
