Every time this issue comes along, I remember the Progressive Insurance ad where the woman simulates cutting her man's genitals via a computer.

About time that they started taking it the other way. For years sitcoms and other TV shows, and ads, have portrayed the white, american male as dumber than a box of rocks with the wife and kids being 10X smarter than the father/husband. Black males rate a little higher but not much. Women are portrayed as the great thinkers and wonderful humans that men should morph into.

This is true of movies also. The woman is oft times(most of the time)portrayed as the hero, physically capable of beating the biggest white male to death in single combat, smarter, faster, stronger and just all around superior to any male.
