Sony has been accused of demeaning women and pandering to the sleaziest urges of teenage boys with a new advert comparing playing video games to masturbation.
The online clip, reportedly published to Sony Europe's YouTube channel on Friday, features an attractive woman dressed as a doctor who gives an entire monologue of double entendres.
'I know you've already done it today, and I bet you really enjoyed yourself,' says the woman, who for the purposes of this promotional fantasy is identified as Dr Grace Powels.
She pulls off her spectacles, pouts, leans into the camera and breathes: 'How many times did you do it yesterday? Are you afraid you're doing it too often?
'In the bedroom under your blankets? Or perhaps you prefer the kitchen or in the toilet? Or do you like it out in the garden?' she continues, climbing onto her desk as close-up shots focus on her full lips.
'You no longer have to feel ashamed. Everybody's doing it, because it's fantastic. And now you can keep going all day long. Don't you like that? You don't even need to stop. And if you want to, you could even join me.'
