Colin, I agree, they are not trying to appeal to our innocence, they are trying to
sell us innocence. What could be more innocent than a cute little baby, or a new born
puppy. They are stimulating us with innocence. Why are we stimulated by innocence?
Most likely a longing for our own lost innocence. It's no different than selling us
something using sexy models. Buy this product and "your lovers will look like movie
stars" - buy this product and you'll regain a bit of your innocence. I'm not sure if
I am explaining this well, but it makes sense to me.
