The City That Doesn't Sleep ... with Married People

Times Square has been hooker-free for years, but even legal sex is being run out of town.

AshleyMadison.com, the controversial dating site for married people, unveiled a new billboard in midtown Manhattan on Monday. But after receiving a deluge of complaints, the sign, which was supposed to run for six weeks, was taken down faster than Eliot Spitzer.

New York can be a hard city to stay up in.

5. Man, NY really gets the controversial ads. This one and the one that the Muslims want to put in the subways (that will run through the anniversary of 9/11) are very touchy subjects.

And people this us folks in California are strange. ;-)

7.

What the hell? A dating service for married people? I can't get my brain twisted around that one. It's not often that the things people do surprise or confound me, but I sit here.....confounded.

10. OCD -

Go to Craigslist and there are all kinds of ads that say "Married - Looking for discreet relationship...etc.".

That's a free site vice what AshleyMadison.com might be charging.

11. I agree with #5 wholeheartedly. Dating sites for married people are nothing new. Everyone knows you can go online and find a sex partner on any number of sites. ADVERTISING that site--on a BILLBOARD, no less--is tactless and in poor judgement. I understand the site needs to drum up more business so that they can make money, but PLEASE! That's a DISGRACE!

13. More evidence that too many people in charge have more power than their little brains can handle, thus witness the further decline of western civilization being pushed by idiots.
