The advertizement I posted here was the only one I saw. <BR/><BR/>My focus was not on Exotica, but on the civil marriage part. And, to be honest with you, that does reflect my own ideals.<BR/><BR/>A thought came to my mind as I was taking the picture: is the issue so trivial in Lebanon that it is being used to promote Exotica's products?!?!<BR/><BR/>But, then again, another side of me says that any exposure is good enough.Rajahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02625042447499335907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10968421.post-1152692959902242242006-07-12T03:29:00.000-05:002006-07-12T03:29:00.000-05:00..I forgot to add.

(for those who don't speak arabic, it's a marriage where the bride marries an 'unwanted' groom behind her parents' back)<BR/><BR/>Hardly a proclaimed ideal, don't you think?Mustaphahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04677450720842640863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10968421.post-1152656132394500122006-07-11T17:15:00.000-05:002006-07-11T17:15:00.000-05:00Yes, the Exotica ads are world-class; I see that t...Yes, the Exotica ads are world-class; I see that they know how to tap into the modernizing Lebanese psyche.
