Am I the only one annoyed by the hectoring pro"women" Super Bowl "commercials?"
my own fevered imagination | February 1, 2015 | me

Posted on 02/01/2015 5:29:34 PM PST by JOHN ADAMS

Am I the only person watching this "football game" (which is actually a good football game) annoyed by these annoying lectures, masquerading as commercials, about how powerful, capable, independent and valuable women are, so we barbaric men shouldn't devalue them, disrespect them (not actually a word) or hit them? Is this really what we need to be told while we're trying to just watch a ball game? I know the rest of the culture insists on this, but aren't men the primary clientele of the NFL? Why does the NFL have to subject us to this nonsense?

If you tuned out halfway, then you missed this PC demographic commercial...

And I didn’t say you did agree

I said why even repeat it on a conservative site

It’ has the same veracity of Hands Up

It struck as odd and inappropriate to use children to sell tampons and maxipads while at the same time promoting grrl power and marginalizing men.

I noted that of those in the room with me, the ones who hooted and howled and approved the most were the angry leftist females who have a chip on their shoulder and see the world through the lens of gender conflict.

I quickly saw the subtext and was sorta grossed out by it. It was anti-family and thus ultimately anti-civilization.

But as a noun.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "disrespect" has been used as a verb since 1614.

Puritan divine and Cambridge don Joseph Hall wrote of the "two masters" passage of the Gospel: "If he love the one, he must disrespect the other."

Victorian novelist George Meredith wrote: "You will judge whether he disrespects me."

Thomas Paine wrote participially in "The Rights of Man" as follows: 'Reflecting how wretched was the condition of a disrespected man."

It is a perfectly good, direct and descriptive English verb.

I know. These leftists act as if the US is the most racist and sexist place on Earth while purposefully ignoring the obvious.

It’s capitalism, John, plain and simple.

Women are/were an unexploited market for the NFL. Note how they started making jerseys for the female form over the last few years.

MONEY.

And no, I have not read the rest of the thread, but unless the posts point to money as the reason, they are simply wrong. IMVHO.

Honestly, if I had to choose between spending some of MY PERSONAL money on either a mid range call girl for me, or on a commercial discussing anti-male bias that would make you happy.

Well, lets just say my night would be happy, not yours. (you should see me smiling right now)

Fine, maybe your hooker will represent you against the anti-male bias in the court system when it's your turn.

but a certain tone does tend to run through many of your posts.

Well, look at all of the Freepers who have complained about the anti male bias of the family court system, or the school system that is shortchanging boys just at FR. Then, read some of this.

The Growing Demand for Prostitution
What Kind of Men Go to Prostitutes?
Secret Service Scandal: Why Men Buy Sex

1% of this money would be enough to help MRAs fight the bias that men are always complaining about.

Now tell me you don't understand my disgust.

And the women selling themselves for those millions of dollars? What of them?

Are they forcing men to patronize their services at gunpoint, and in doing so preventing men from supporting MRAs?

Do as I do; ignore them or channel surf while they’re on. Or, more challenging, think up counter ads to oppose them!

It’s a fundamental CHRISTIAN idea. Wives must submit to the leadership their husbands.
