Why is it OK that ITV (not their issue but the advertiser) have just shown an ad showing how cool it would be to give a man a 'split handle screwdriver set', but if I gave my wife an iron she would get the raving arse?
Post your examples here please.
Men like screwing duh!

What some people don't understand (not saying you, but you mentioned the Coke advert) is that it isn't feminists that make these adverts, it's the same advertising big wigs that make sexist adverts geared towards men, all they see is money and they exploit every chance they can to make more money.

What goes in the stationery cupboard stays in the stationery cupboard.
i am saying NO more.
So during these 'activities', it was quite a stationary stationery cupboard I guess.

I assume that you're also not keen that those leg shavers are also always marked for women?

no idea what a feminist actually is in 2016, but I agree with the last bit. An advert I thought was outrageously sexist was the one with two lads, then one's mum turns up and the implication is she screwed her son's mate. No idea what the ad was for, but imagine that in reverse
Does any of this really matter though? Seems to me that a lot of people (men) who get so overly flouncy about a few adverts are the same ones who would be the first to slag off the "hand wringing, politically correct lefties" when it's pointed out that someone was being say, completely racist or homophobic. "There's an advert that objectifies men, call for a policeman!".
Calm down dear.
I remember having this conversation (re the diet coke adverts) with mates when I was much younger and things like that seemed like they were worth worrying about. But then you realise that, as a bloke, you really do have an easy ride in life compared to women and a few "sexist" adverts are totally irrelevant.
I also came to the conclusion that a lot of men getting offended by the diet coke advert are just feeling jealous and threatened by the idea that women drool over good looking blokes. You know, the same as we all do over women all the time.
The playing field is in no way level lads. Stop being such sensitive flowers.

It is a bit of fun for heaven's sake, but you wouldn't understand that as you are high up on the list of the above.
I'd like to see your evidence for this. Other than me pointing out that you often make a total dick of yourself when you post political nonsense on here that is. [emoji6]
A bit of fun, OK mate.... I was having a bit of fun pointing out the blatant hypocrisy in bedwetting over some adverts. All seems a bit, pathetic?
