I actually know very few French people, but, of the ones I know, *all* of them are perfectly comfortable watching attractive people have sex, even if they're not personally interested in that kind of sex. And I'm told that's perfectly normal in France, and my experience with Spain and the Netherlands and parts of northern Germany[1] is similar. Meaning it's not likely to turn off the target audience quite that much.
#3: It's internet-only marketing, carefully tuned to go "viral" in a hurry. Meaning it doesn't matter if they only wind up with that ad pandering to a small percentage, because they've got a big audience.
#4: After I saw that commercial, I tried to go to the site, and, had it still been running, I would have noted the section for men and skimmed through stuff I could buy from that company for myself, even though the original ad I saw involved two women. Shai clothing is still running, but their main site is fugly and impossible to navigate, which is too bad.
[1]: But not Bavaria. Damn, Bavarian people are uptight! I'm *Canadian* and I say that!

And on a lighter note, there was the chastity belt featured in the insurance commercial.
And that was a good ten years ago, by now.
