Default Man sues over lack of 'Lynx effect'

Has anyone seen this load of tripe on the orange home page?? Okay a nice deoderant and aftershave will get a girls attention. But if you are a hound then you would not notice the initial glance unless they spew on the spot. I think Lynx (Axe in this bullitin) should tell him to go F himself.

Ananova - Man sues over lack of 'Lynx effect'

Man sues over lack of 'Lynx effect'
A luckless Indian romeo is suing Lynx after he failed to land a single girlfriend during seven years of using their products.



Vaibhav Bedi, 26, is seeking £26,000 from parent company Unilever for the "depression and psychological damage" caused by the lack of any Lynx effect.

Court officials in New Delhi have agreed to order forensic laboratory tests on dozens of his half-used Lynx body washes, shampoos, anti-perspirants and hair gels.

Lynx - marketed as Axe in India - is famous for its saucy ads showing barely clothed women throwing themselves at men.

But Bedi says in his court petition: "The company cheated me because in its advertisements, it says women will be attracted to you if you use Axe.

"I used it for seven years but no girl came to me."

When contacted Unilever declined to comment on the case.

But India's leading compensation litigator Ram Jethmalani warned: "There is no data to substantiate the supposition that unattractive and unintelligent men don't attract women.

"In fact some of the best looking women have been known to marry and date absolutely ghoulish guys. I'd suggest that the company settles this issue out of court."

I`m sorry but the indian chap doesn`t have a leg to stand on, unilever who make Lynx will just point out this to him

YouTube - Dans and Alan Partridge's first meeting

and tell him that if Alan Partridge can pull Sonia then Lynx is working well beyond ther boundaries that it was intended for.

If im not mistaken, pulling a bird depends on a) your looks, b) your personality, c) your ability to communicate with said girl that night( ie be funny etc).

A nice fragrance is almost the same as basic hygeine these days?

Maybe this bloke should take his £26000 and buy a wife....

Nothing wrong with a decent bar of soap.
