An Australian television commercial for a popular fast food chain has been taking heat over a premise that has been accused of being blatantly sexist and enforcing “archaic stereotypes.”

In the 15-second spot for KFC, a young woman — apparently on her way to some type of festival — checks herself in the reflection of a car window, adjusting her low-cut dress to showcase her cleavage.

enforcing “archaic stereotypes.”...

Yeah those silly ones like puberty and testosterone :)

And attraction to the opposite sex.

[rb22982]

KFC is Not guilty!

[BenLurkin]

KFC won’t be serving breasts in Australia?

[rktman]

And adjusting cleavage to better showcase it. How dare she? 😳😁

Yes, women don’t want men to look at their t!ts & @$$. That’s why they get boob & butt implants.

“has been accused of being blatantly sexist and enforcing “archaic stereotypes.””

Yeah, staring at breasts is archaic. The the progressives of fantasyland.

[gibsonguy]

Yeah young boys would only do this because of a growing up in a sexist society /s
Of course KFC folded like they all do.

[MrHead]

Harmless advert.

[right way right]

It use to be the prudes making a stink everywhere, now it’s SJW’s.

lol

I think one of the few times I agreed with Bill Maher is when he said men take over countries to get women to kiss them.

All women have to do to get men to kiss them is their hair.

YES, this is the clean version.

” accused of being blatantly sexist and enforcing “archaic stereotypes.”

Otherwise known as the normal male reaction to attractive women.

We need Laz to referee this dispute.

While the commercial shows infinite bad taste, it’s only archaic to those modern with mental illness.

[Grampa Dave]

So a healthy woman is should not be able to use the gifts she was loaned, by God.

[jughandle]

I might be worried if the boys DIDN’T check out some clevage.

[Libloather]

Call me archaic.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Yes, it IS low-class and scummy. To those who applaud it here, sorry, but in the pre-feminist days of the 50s and earlier, this would be frowned upon, certainly in public as this is a public ad.

But OTOH, at least it wasn’t homos doing it.

[Telepathic Intruder]

I apologize for eating at KFC. Not because of the commercial, but because they apologized for the commercial.

[mumblypeg]

I’m a woman & I think the ad is funny— because it’s true.
Most of what’s on TV is in infinitely worse taste.
