Well yeah, OP I'm sure those type of women wouldn't get terribly aroused for you. Granted I doubt you've ever had sex with a woman that was aroused, so you wouldn't even know what a non-dry twat was.

I do like how you ignore the other ad being banned for portraying men as dipshits that don't know how to take care of a baby. But hey thanks for the concern.

I didn't have a clip of that ad. Sounds like a harmless ad just the same though. More overly PC bs.

Sick burns man.

Wow that is really pathetic. Those ads are not offensive in the least. I didn't even realize what the "issue" with the VW ad was until I read the article.

And I still don't see the issue. A mother is being motherly.

OH KNOW STEREOTYPES!

Someone pls tell the feminists that men like woman and woman like men (for the most part). It's crucial.

Of course, it's all those damn liberals' fault that the conservative govt in the UK passed and enforces this law.

"Complainants said the ad perpetuated a harmful stereotype by suggesting that men were incapable of caring for children and would place them at risk as a result of their incompetence."

Why is the OP upset?

It appears the right-wing Jordan Peterson's incels and Men's Rights Movement scored a win.

Because that is who complained. The Jordan Peterson following MRM.

Oh, look at the alt-right MRM complaining about this very thing:

I do not see what in Hell is offensive with this ad. So only 128 viewers complained about this, so what about the millions who didn't complain at all?

PC run amok. The hate speech video below was complained about by three people (assumed to be dry twat liberal feminists) because the men were doing adventurous things, the woman was with a baby.

Ah, so the thin skinned conservative twat complains about it. You certainly complain a lot.

"Complainants said the ad perpetuated a harmful stereotype by suggesting that men were incapable of caring for children and would place them at risk as a result of their incompetence."

That's for a different ad.

The actual statement regarding the Volkswagen ad from the bureaucrats who came up with the ruling is:

"By juxtaposing images of men in extraordinary environments and carrying out adventurous activities with women who appeared passive or engaged in a stereotypical care-giving role, we considered that the ad directly contrasted stereotypical male and female roles and characteristics in a manner that gave the impression that they were exclusively associated with one gender."


Neither of which mentions the cream cheese ad as far as I can see. I won't discount the possibility that the complainants are right wing MRA types, but I'm also not convinced.

Guess not. But maybe we can all agree that regardless of who is doing the censoring that it's a bad thing.

Are you offended by that ad being banned in the UK? Please vote for more corporate tax cuts to get back at the liberals.

It is for the first ad mentioned in the story he posted.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...gender-stereotyping-rules?srnd=premium-africa

But nice cherry y'all picked there. It seems he's ONLY enraged by the SECOND ad in the story being banned over how women are portrayed, but NOT the ad banned for making men look stupid.

His post and the cherry he picked speaks volumes.

And the irony of years of right-wing men's rights groups and alt-right groups protesting over being made to look stupid in advertising is NOT going unnoticed... except by them when they rage over the OTHER ad in this story. You know, the SECOND ad mentioned.

Yes, I know. But your post doesn't mention that or read like "Slow is picking and choosing," it reads "The thing Slow chose to complain about is actually against him. Haha. What an idiot." That's the point. It looks like you skimmed and conflated the two, and are now trying to cover your tracks.

But nice cherry y'all picked there. It seems he's ONLY enraged by the SECOND ad in the story being banned over how women are portrayed, but NOT the ad banned for making men look stupid.

The thing is that the "men aren't good at caring for babies" trope is something that could trigger either MRA types ("It's anti-male!") or social justice types ("It's a gender stereotype! Subverting traditional roles so that the father is the one staying at home and caring for the children is progress!") and so the blame on that one feels pretty ambiguous. If anything, I'd lean towards the later if only because the mechanism seems to better fit their M.O. (e.g. cancel culture).

The car ad isn't ambiguous at all though. The fault is obviously on the shoulders of deranged people on the left.

But even that being the case, it would be nice if we could all agree that censorship is bad. It's OK to point out where the right has also erred -- after all, if I had to guess I'd assume that the bureaucrats originally received their mandate via right wing politicians looking to clamp down on "satanic" content, or some such. If so, a good example on why the ends don't justify the means -- but the "I'm rubber and you're glue" + "Let's all make fun of the messenger" just comes across as deflection. And smug. If instead you said something like: "Yes, this is bad and I condemn it. Do you also condemn x?" then who knows, you might find some common ground.

I saw the VW ad mentioned specifically somewhere else, I searched and found the link listed in the OP. That link contains two such stories, I was only highlighting the VW ad as we can actually see the ad and see just how "offensive" it really is and then each of us can make our own conclusions and discuss, having seen the actual ad in question. Simple as that. Everything else you said is nothing more than you projecting and making things up.

That old chestnut? Give it a rest.

My mail just got delivered by . . . an un-elected bureaucrat!

The viciously right-wing leaning Supreme Court is made up entirely of . . . un-elected bureaucrats.

If you go through a red light you're liable to be pulled over by . . . an un-elected bureaucrat . . . with a gun!

Every teacher you ever had, from kindergarten through grad school, was . . . an un-elected bureaucrat!

What is shocking here is you're too stupid to see what a tool you are. You're outraged by the VW ad and had never heard of the cheese ad because that's what your media told you.

Ask yourself why your media sources/cults of personality have and will never mention the cheese ad. Why they are only selectively outraged by the VW ad. And why, by design through their propaganda, you are too.

Example of right-wing cherry picking that led you to do so yourself.
