'Someone's Got To Wear the Pants In This Family': Kia Commercial Mocks American Husband

What's been implicit in TV commercials for years—that American husbands are feckless wimps—has now officially become explicit . . .

Tuning in to watch a simple Sunday Night Football game, we were treated to a Kia ad. Wife at the wheel as the family pulls into a crowded parking lot for their kid's football game. Wimpy husband suggests they go back and park someplace safe. We get to read the wife's mind as, driving it up a hill, she says "or, we could run it right up the gut." She then adds the coup de grace: "someone's got to wear the pants in this family." Take that!

View the commercial here.

Yeah, that one’s pitiful

Plus the token black guy Allstate has used for years

Well, when it’s true, it’s true.

Radical Militant Feminism strikes again.

==================================

Feminist self-loathing, self hatred.
Very sad. They are missing two things:
1. A life for Christ and
2. an appreciation of men. After all, men are made up from 50% dad's genes and 50% mom's genes. And THEY were made up of 50% of their male/female ancestors.

Self loathing is so selfish. If they turned their lives over to our good Lord, they wouldn't have that. God loves us. If He loves us, we must not be ALL bad, female OR male.

The only people left to ridicule, demean, make fun of, use as a punch-line, exorcise your demons on, project your fears and hatred on, are straight white males.

If you do it to any other demographic, it’s racist, sexist, or homophobic, and the “victims” will be micro-aggressed and retreat to their “safe space” ... and you will be labelled and your life ruined.

But we can take it. All we have to do is look around to see the entire world wants to live in countries built by straight, white males. And when we actually get fed up with it, we have the means to straighten things out.

Wife and I were walking in the woods,I turned-looked at her shoulder and said,”What kind of spider is that?”I thought it was pretty funny at the time,right up to the point where she tried to rip a limb off a tree to beat me with.

Well, yes, this media castration campaign has been going on for years now, to the severe detriment of the Nation. But men need to man up, and stop whining like victims.

A big part of the problem is that, from childhood, men have been educated to want to act like women.

Question: If you are a man, why in hell would you want to act like a woman? Act more like a real man, and this peculiar perversion will fade away.

Meanwhile, normal women are waiting impatiently for you to grow a set, stop with the video games, get some chest and get a life.

And are these are the same, pants wearing, tough talking females who will be screaming like 12 year old brats if intruders break in to their house, insisting that self same husband “DO SOMETHING!”...???

If one looks at the commercials, T.V., billboards, whatever, one would think that this country is half black, 15% Asian, 20% Hispanic and only 15% white. The backbone of this country is the straight, white WORKING male. God bless’em all.

I know, it is stunning isn’t it?

Lol!

There was a Woody Allen movie with Diane Keaton demanding that Woody kill the spider in her bathtub.
From the bathroom Allen called out: "It's as big as a Buick!"

Whenever I see one of those on the road I think Killed in Action.

Someone has to wear the pants...

Madison Avenue Pecking order;

1. Black Female. There is no stronger individual on the planet. Including Superman.
2. White Female. Only Black Female can top them. Mmmmm hmmmmmmm.
3. Black Male. They know their place. They are the top of the Masculine heap in advertising. Yet, still in 3rd place.
4. White Male. They look around for clues. They don't know shit. They need the White Female to tell them their place. And when faced with a Black Female, they are prostrate and mute.

American men are THE BEST in the whole wide world. I've traveled OODLES in my life and I can say with certaintly: American men are THE BEST in the whole wide world.

Mine certainly is!

This is nothing new. There is a concerted war on masculinity in this country, and this is how they roll.

I just saw a GE commercial where they have a guy who is the spitting image of Pajama Boy.

Hmm...

[CrazyIvan]

Besides, at the FIRST glimse of a spider, the woman will be screaming for her husband to kill it. Never fails.

What gives with that? My beautiful and talented step daughter can shoot and field dress her own deer but I have to squash spiders and take dead mice out of traps for her.

The men I find most attractive are not the girlie men but those strong in character, no matter what they look like.

A good looking man who is a wuss is less attractive to me than a strong man who is nothing special in the looks department.

So was mine. He passed five years ago. Not a day goes by...

Men have been portrayed as idiots for decades. Name any sitcom. Very sad.

Makes perfect sense to me. (I’m a woman)
