“From Bridgestone tires to Dodge cars to Bud Light, it was bros vs. hos on the boob tube, with ads depicting women as spine-stealing nags.”
They aren’t?
Women don’t have to make choices, they can “have it all”. And the ones that don’t have it all, are making some guy pay for it. This is a generality of course, aimed at liberal women. Freeper women excluded. :)
The one that always gets me is the Yoplait ad. The woman on the phone, talking about the stuff she eats, and her “man” looking through the fridge like a starving, confused dog. She finally notices him, and asks in a very superior tone: “Babe, what are you doing?” The poor excuse for a man looks up, now guilty and confused. This ad is meant to market yougurt to women. It’s long running, which means, it must appeal to their intended customer base, and get results. It makes me want to smack that guy and tell him to grow a pair.
Don’t forget that cereal ad where the idiot husband is being verbally de-balled because he suggested she was eating that cereal in order to lose weight.
