Just wondering why this particular pairing is so prevalent in TV ads.

Watching college basketball tonight, I have seen 7 different ads in the past hour or so featuring this pairing:

Ferrero Rocher
Hyundai
Nissan
Adore Me
Sonic
GEICO
Make Space

I have seen more of these commercials than ads featuring a heterogenous couple in terms of race. The issue is that black wife, white husband is statistically the rarest type of pairing, so I am wondering why marketing/advertising feels the need to over inflate it.

Why do you think this is?

Because it’s the most uncommon relationship

Cancel your TV provider and watch less TV and you will be less distracted with questions that don’t even bare an answer.

Only white guys rob houses now too

Big Blue alarm taught me that.

I had no idea so many white guys were into black girls either. And the white guy is always weak.

And another key component of many of these Ads, is the white husband isnt usually driving the car......

I remember a commercial with a black male homeowner and a white female burglar.

I'm blacker than the night sky and I thought that was ridiculous.

Because all white male progressives have slave master fantasies. This is how they live it out since they are too much of a pussy to actually make it happen for themselves.

Only way that scenario is true is if the girl is a tweaker and either desperate or thinking she is breaking into a drug house.

Every company is in a clown show competition to be the most woke. Notice how the white husband is always a complete moron compared to the wife as well.

Funny, I noticed it lately as well. That and homo couples.

Why are the gay couples almost always men? Do gay women not buy things?

I would guess because it polls better than black husband and white wife with focus groups.

Because enough idiots will call them racist on Twitter if they don't do this at least once, sooner or later. Then they will feel racist or socially irresponsible if they don't, because Twitter said so.

The black “wife” is the intelligent one in the “couple”, the white male is too stupid on his own.... The assault on Caucasian males continues unopposed

Sane people of any color (I’m more beige than white) have to think this shite is ridiculous.

I’m thinking the idea was to find a way to get a black woman into a marriage.

They are notoriously demanding to the point where black men who have options outside their race will go that route and you don’t find too many straight men with the jungle fever.

It almost looks out of pity for black women because you see so many successful black guys rejecting them for white women.
