Maybe if the people who don't understand why the PETA ad is offensive watch it with the sound off, they'll understand why it's so inappropriate. With the narration, it's a joke - a tasteless and poorly thought out joke, but an attempt at humor nonetheless (in the advertisers' minds). Without, it's more disturbing, especially the start. Also, the boy looking contrite and the girl smiling at the end doesn't mean there couldn't be abuse happening; abusers will be kind, to manipulate their victims
