I only have problems with TV ads that always show the man as stupid and the woman (or minority) being smart.

Note also the “no visible man” and “woman wins” genres. Many commercials show a mom with kids, but no dad to be seen. Apparently their market research shows that unmarried women would be offffeeeeeeeeennnnded seeing a married woman in an ad.

Some TV commercials show a minor man/woman conflict, always resolved in favor of the woman. Wouldn’t want protests from the femi-nazis.
