Progressive Insurance Runs Painful Anti-Male TV Ad

SJones writes "Progressive Insurance has begun running an ad in which an angry ex-girlfriend or ex-wife is depicted as creating a voo doo doll of her ex and then injuring him in various ways. At the end of the commercial she uses pliers on his genitals and we are shown him making a horrible face for the last shot. Apparently this insurance company thinks sexual abuse of males is a good way to sell insurance. Unless they hear otherwise from us this will likely continue."
