IKEA Singapore’s cheeky ad makes light of Josephine Teo's ‘sex’ comment
IKEA Singapore has uploaded a tongue-in-cheek GIF that appears to take a dig at Senior Minister of State’s Josephine Teo’s recent comments on couples needing only a “very small space to have sex”.
The cheeky animated image, touted as IKEA’s “very small space” collection, features four pieces of furniture – including a small wardrobe – rocking back and forth. Posted on the IKEA Singapore Facebook page, its caption reads, “We are all for making better use of small spaces.”
On Wednesday (12 October), The Straits Times published an interview with Teo in which she was asked whether young people are not getting their flats early enough to have children. This prompted her to reply, “You need a very small space to have sex.”
Teo’s comment caused a stir on social media, with some coming up with lists of the smallest places in Singapore that could fit the bill.
In response to the IKEA post, one Facebook user Jack Tang asked, “Good job IKEA, any soundproof furniture?”
