More anti-male commercials

In the commercial it shows young men trying to describe what kind of hair style they want. The stylists (female) always interrupt them with a smart-ass remark like, "soemthing that says I don't live in my parents basement" or something to the effect of not looking like a failure in women's eyes. Also, Ford has not listened to you guys - they have come up with a commercial that shows a wife folding seats and preparing the kids safety seats while the husband struggles with the stroller. At the end she does it for him with ease and he's left standing there." It's activism day today, so can anyone verify?

If you need another (Score:0) by Anonymous User on 07:06 PM April 25th, 2004 EST (#2) One female student hands another in class what is obviously at first glance a feminine hygene product and is caught by the teacher. Called to the front, he (middle-aged, white and balding of course) examines the cylindrical, sealed package and asks the young student of colour if she brought enough for the whole class. "Just the girls" she replies, generating laughs at the teacher's expense from the girls and nose-curled Twit-faces - reminiscent of Monty Python Gumby characters - from the 'confused' young men.       Apparently the target audience hasn't tired of this ad yet as it plays ad nausem around here.

Interesting banner ad(?) (Score:0) by Anonymous User on 09:07 PM April 25th, 2004 EST (#5) This is not really male-bashing but it was interesting. Specifically, this was some sort of vertical ad banner on the right edge of a Web page. Not sure exactly what page it was on. At the bottom of the ad was the head of a female who was smiling. At the top was a large anvil and (possibly) the face of someone else. There was a message about "Fire [a name specified]" (presumably referring to the female shown at the bottom) and a pushbutton to "drop the anvil" When the button is clicked, the anvil falls onto the female's head. The anvil bounces slightly a few times. Each time, there is a squishing effect of the female's head giving way slightly. There is no blood or signs of serious injury. Kind of surprising that they would show something like this.
