So, after all that has been done to empower women, it’s ok to permit a certain brand of sexism because it is mild? When you get to your porch do you stop there? I mean, why go in the house when the porch has a floor and a roof?

But it’s totally OK to hold someone’s family hostage until they link you.

Why can’t you just let people enjoy the funny commercial? Instead of breaking it down bit by bit…

But what I enjoy is breaking down the funny commercial bit by bit. Why should I enjoin enjoying what I enjoy to further your enjoyment?

As for the time you’ve wasted, I refuse to take the rap for that. I didn’t hold a gun to your head and force you to read my blog. (Although that would be an intriguing possibility, if I was really determined to increase traffic.)

The one you have up is for a, and I quote, “private video” for use by friends of the poster only. The rest of us poor saps can’t see a damn thing.

You guys are almost as bad as the blacks.

Just because I’m so angry with your ignorance, I’m going to go beat my wife, and you know what? YOU!! CAN’T!! STOP!! ME!! Because I’m a man, see, and despite your 5 hour long filibuster, I am still more than capable of immediately silencing you with one forearm to the cranium. Because I’m better. My penis, my overpowering height, size, intelligence and overall value as a human being in this world says so. Bye.

And I have never once seen a mainstream hit sitcom that depicts men as sole survivors and women as slimeball Neanderthal losers. The vice versa, however, is everywhere. What do you do when you see that? Do you throw a fist in the air and proclaim “YOU GO GIRL!” like some cliche teenager?

If you want equality, how about laughing at an obviously over exaggerated commercial about stereotypical manliness, instead of screaming “GIRL POWER” every time a woman sticks it to a man on television like it’s not the same thing (like it’s not WORSE)?

Feminists give me the impression that they want the perks of being a man and nothing else of it. Like they automatically have deep insight into society upon spending 5 minutes in college. A lot of them are plenty out of shape because they eat like a man, man. (Oh, dear. I’m sexist.)

I can imagine him dancing around his apartment in LA singing it out loud in front of his girlfriend and her saying “what tha….?”

So you over-analyze the commercial but you miss something? At approximately 30 or 35 seconds in, you should hear these two lines:

“I will eat this meat
‘Till my innie turns into an outtie”

That kind of goes against you doesn’t it?

Anyway, personally I think you’re looking too deep. If you look for something, you will find it.

On eof the reasons I love this commercial so much is that the second I saw it I knew this fuss was coming. Hilarious. ANd other women wonder why I refuse to call myself a feminist.

That’s why you have to watch everything closely, so you can spot what is sexist about it. If you don’t, you won’t know when to get offended.

This is interesting, because when I first read your description of the scene, I assumed that the minivan owner was very thin and short — the stereotypical spineless weiner.
