At most this poster is mildly titillating and sexy, but it is certainly not even bordering on being "soft porn." This may stun you, Pyro7480, but I think that poster IS moderate.
As for relating the word "toxic" to this ad - well, we obviously have a different idea as to what constitutes poison or toxicity.
For the record, although the fact I defend this poster and consider it harmless might make me a "sex addict" in some folks eyes, I do not consider myself to be a sex addict (though my girlfriend may argue differently.)
Maybe "moderate" by 2004 standards, but pornographic by more eternal standards...
There seems to be some uncertainty on this issue. Obviously, we need a larger image to study in detail so that we can get to the bottom of it.
Then you are simply defining deviancy downward. If this is not soft-porn, then what is? Full frontal nudity? Actual penetration? S&M?
The bottom line (no pun intended), is that bodies that are naked all except for nipples and pubic areas, erotically posed, ARE soft porn. Four naked female bottom's lined up in a row are intended to be highly erotic. If you did not take it this way, then the developers of the advertisement would be deeply disappointed.
I find that what many people consider to be "soft porn" or no porn changes drastically when their 8 to 13 year old sons or daughters are alongside them viewing the...er.. event. Also, it's one thing to ban pornography in it's various forms, and it's another to ban PUBLIC pornography in any form, which can be viewed by innocents.
Innocents deserve the chance to remain innocent, until their parents can introduce mature topics at an appropriate age. My children, for example, learned all the glories of oral sex at a very young, precocious age, because of a pornographic, sex-addicted President who sullied his office.
That's why words such as "soft porn", "porn", and "hard core" must mean something more than "I like it", "I like it a lot", and "I freakin' love this sh*t so leave me alone you prude!!". Words create laws, and good laws protect innocents.

Mabye they should post acts of terrorism around the
mosques and body parts blown all to pieces. They would like this. Islam is not known for showing it's bare
bottom, but it is known for terrorism and murder.
