Sexist Ads, Can I ask you guys what you think of these Truvia commercials?I just saw one recently reusing the footage while applying the melody of a Christmas song but I rather “enjoy” these ones better. There are a few of these and while these are less overt I still find this whole “All women have an uncontrollable sweet tooth” thing to just be getting old. I am also getting sick of men and meat-product commercials. WHY CAN’T I LAUGH WHILE EATING SALAD!

That is some major bullshit. But I’m having trouble unpacking it because resolution season had just made me irritable. (I cannot exercise! Stop hounding me commercials!)

I really hate any food commercial that shows a relationship with food that goes anywhere but “I LOVE YOU SO MUCH NOM NOM NOM”. Furtive eating (the donut one) and shame is creepy, especially in an ad anyone can see - that may be triggering for someone with an ED. It shouldn’t be complex, you know what I mean?

But they want to show the benefits of their sugar replacement - it would just be a bit better to show both men and women happy about their cakes not interfering with their jeans.

I am loathing this month and the ads everywhere for diets and exercising more than usual. I can’t even do a guilty walk or swim this year, so I am just pissed. It leads to some shitty thinking.
