I think that commercial is repulsive. Again objectifying women

I said something on another thread about finding the commercial problematic and was questioned why I thought so.  I guess we still have a long way to go, but as the mother of three daughters I'm depressed and even appalled that people don't see anything wrong.

I din’t think its problematic. Just dumb.

I just saw a new Jacuzzi commercial without Christina Whateverhernaneisthisweek. It still had the shrieking lady though so it’s still annoying. 

And now Christina is back but the shrieking lady is gone!  Why do we have to suffer through one or the other?

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is doing quite well.

And let's not forget Barbie. Its promotions were everywhere!

There are always exceptions.

I find absolutely nothing problematic about that commercial.  The women are identifying a scent which apparently they find appealing.  Nothing particularly sexual is going on in it.  It's not like any of the women are scantily clad or in compromising positions of any sort.  Yes, they're blindfolded but that in and of itself is not an issue to me.

This one! I hate it so much!

Hate that 50 shades 💩!

It reminds me of this old commercial that always struck me as... odd.
