Oh c’mon!

December 3, 2009

This Method viral video, which received positive reviews from the Association of National Advertisers and others, has been pulled because some viewers believe it's sexist and pokes fun at rape threats as this article from Advertising Age explains.

Huh? That's weird because, when I watched the commercial, I was thinking how some cleaners do, indeed, leave a nasty residue. I found it more sexist that the woman was portrayed as a "little housewife" cleaning the house and getting breakfast ready "in 20."

Aren't there more blatant rape and sexism issues occurring in the world today? Maybe it's me, but I'm not going to get riled up about animated, perverted bubbles yelling "loofah."
