I am horrified by the casual sexism to both sexes in this ad. There are so many issues with it I just don't know where to begin! Did the last 40 years never happen or is it me...?

Thoughts?

Meh.....rather this than sanitised 'pc gone mad for fear of offending anyone'....buff men and women lusting after each other, looks pretty balanced to me.

LOL I dont see whats wrong with it.

Ugh, seriously? They make it sound like sex works on a barter system. Yuck. You do this thing, then she rewards you with sex... The making of a "nice guy", to be sure.

That ad's not even funny, it's just sad. What kind of self respecting guy would put up with that BS?

I was just disgusted by the big bag of dog shit. I love dogs but that alone is enough reason for me not to have one.

Marketing trades on stereotypes - no more or less offensive than most ads that deal in using sex to sell. Man want trim. Woman have trim. What must Man do to get trim? That's most male-oriented ads in a nutshell.

It's not implying that all women are high maintenance, nor is it implying that all men will put up with a high maintenance girl. I've seen much more sexist ads. I don't find it all that funny though.

My thoughts exactly.

That's kind of my reaction as well, but I have a hard time mustering up sympathy. Any guy who would put up with that BS deserves exactly what he gets.
