There is a truly awful ad for JCPenny running around about how men who give thoughtless presents to their wives/girlfriends (usually of the sexist stereotype sort, like vacuum cleaners, et al.) end up in "the dog house." The ad is a travesty first and foremost because it's about thirty years long. So, do yourself a favor and don't watch it:



The fact that it's sexist is not surprising to anyone viewing it. Where I disagreed with some is that it's just anti-male. Au contraire! It's equal opportunity in its ability to mock, offend, and belittle both sexes! Men are stupid! Women are shallow! Thank you, Sarah Haskins, for taking jewelry commercials apart:

I don't see anything wrong with letting them have both. They should have the play stuff to tide them over when Mom and Dad can't supervise the real baking.
