Over-the-top outrage by femianzis and leftists everywhere.

Really pathetic. Everyone is offended and a victim.

I guess I’m stuck in the 1950s. Because I saw this ad a few times on TV, and I didn’t see anything wrong with it.

What’s interesting is that the women in both ads you refer to are basically children.

They are recipients of gifts that they are, in one case greedy about and in the other fawningly grateful about, but both of those are sort of childlike reactions.

In the Peloton one, even the kids are enlisted to help give the gift to the spoiled child-mom.

I didn’t see anything wrong with that ad. People are making a negative assumption that their theory is right. Must all be Trump haters.

In the ad, she was fine when she GOT the thing. She didn’t have to “get in shape”.

>>>erased nearly $942million from the company’s market value, bringing its market cap to about $9.4billion, according to Markets Insider<<<

A Company that makes an overpriced Exercise Bike has / had a Market Cap of over TEN BILLION DOLLARS?

Did they invent a cure for Cancer too?

Typical female angst and getting riled up about nothing.

Men (esp white men) are trashed 10,000 times worse in commercials. Made to look like dolts and idiots who need protected and saved by their wives and there is no backlash or twitter bitching from men on Twitter.

I appreciate your excerpt from the Daily Mail because I haven’t up to this point understood what the commercial said.

Now that I know I don’t see anything sexist or otherwise wrong with it.

That commercial is no worse than any of the other vapid ones hocking exercise crap.

They screwed up by actually showing the (gasp !! {...insert pearl grasp here.}) female gender’s perspective as a “normal” thing.

I call Schadenfreude !!

Heard this AM (Dan Patrick Show?) that the advertising team that put that ad together was all female.

How about giving the ‘little lady’ a deli counter for home use to make the hubby his favorite sandwiches?

Oh this whole article is dumb. Peloton was at $31.10 a week ago on 11/27. It was at $24.61 a month ago on 11/4. Now it is at $31.63 and they’re acting like the company is about to fold.

But it’s fun to join in the outrage.
