The chick from Taken should have been prominently featured in that commercial.

just validates that most of posters are children.
what man would care about a platex commercial,
except for good fathers.

How can you possibly say right now that it was ineffective?

I swear to God, when I saw that commercial I knew there would be some fricking belly aching on this board. Some of you guys are such an easy mark.
Yeah. The TD demographic isn't that hard to predict.

Because about an hour from now, tomorrow, and thereafter, almost no one will remember much about it. By the way, I do appreciate the message it was trying to convey.

any father of a daughter can relate to what teenage girls go through
anything that helps teen girls with self esteem I am all in on

I'm willing to bet that commercial gets plenty of attention for a while.

You know why? Because the media makes them feel feel inadequate. Because if you're not pretty and skinny and look like and have a life like those Disney Channel teen princesses, you're not good enough. So buy our products!
Self-esteem will probably drop during this time even if the media didn't exist. But let's forget the concrete impact and focus on the abstract (i.e., the media); I'm just surprised you didn't blame ESPN. I guess Disney is close though since they are owned by the same company. Besides, of all the media outlets to blame, Disney should be quite a bit down the list.

That was a really powerful commercial. I enjoyed it.
Having a 7 year old, I understand it. Middle school is usually when they get brainwashed.

Should have said "make a sandwich like a girl"

Telling a dude he runs like a girl does not insult girls.
Simple to understand.

My wife is a kindergarten teacher and a girl and she thought the commercial was bullshite.

I Figure these girl commercials piss the rednecks off some kind of bad. Good enough for me.

Don't you get it? These guys in this thread are man enough to pretend to enjoy it, even though the commercial was totally misguided in its message (ie, implying that "you play ball like a girl" has anything to do with females struggling with image/confidence in adolescence).

Yeah look at all these rednecks!! I bet they watch Bill O'Reilly!

And when you consider that of all the girls they filmed, those examples were the ones they deemed most "macho." It makes the ad all the more insulting to girls

You are just a misogynistic redneck. I bet you don't have daughters.
