The Super Bowl's Buzziest Ads - Yahoo! TV Blog (Check out the very last one.)

Well, MIKE, seeing as you don't have a uterus, why don't you just shut the hell up about whether that ad was a big deal or not? You are so NOT qualified to have an opinion on this. The one thing every woman reading this can likely agree upon is that the issue of choice is not "much ado about nothing."

Asshole.

Oh, and while I'm at it - I didn't watch any of those supposed man-bashing ads because I have the same opinion of those as I have of sitcoms that do the same thing almost all the time. If you're trying to be funny and give all characters equal chance to look like fools, that's one thing (although my idea of "funny" is probably off - I'm one of the few children who watched "I Love Lucy" and asked my mother, "Why is she always whining to him? Why is she begging HIM for a car? Why doesn't she get off her butt and work for one? Or talk to another producer for a part in a show?" But at least she and Ricky both got the chance to look like fools). But when you're making just one or the other "side" look bad, dumb, shiftless, stupid, clueless most or all of the time - UGH. Doing it to men is just as bad as doing it to women, because it's patronizing and basically says "we can't make you women look good without dumbing these fools down to achieve it." And it makes me hate men, which I don't like to do.
