Gender stereotypes to be banned in British adverts
 

Gender stereotypes to be banned in British adverts
was debated on GMBHD itv and LBC
and Radio4 this morning


"The move heralds the end of
adverts showing women cleaning
the family home while men fail
to even use a vacuum cleaner."

Sign Of The Times

why is this in chat and games :conf2:

The principle behind it seems like common sense to me, it's embarrassing that in 2017 some people might believe that housework is 'woman's work'. Not sure it's actually something that needs banning though.

The advert from the original post. 'What's goin' on'. :laugh:

sick of the sexist adverts discriminating against men....all the men couldnt care less theyre all portrayed as dumb lazy clueless ...it is offensive and deeply untrue

I posted it there, But staff did not agree
Meanwhile the WW3 thread was hot on Serious Debates
we are waiting for YOU
Scott to post on the WW3 thread

Thank you James
for posting that Classic Kid washing machine learner
Classic from Way back in 1986


I assume now he is too thin ????????
PC control fella was on LBC AM saying

About ****ing time

And women

Sexist stereotype ads are bloody annoying. Not sure why it matters if its against men or women but I am not surprised your only issue is with the ones about men :idc:

I thought this was a teenager failing to know how to wash his own clothes?

Is teenage lazy and stupid stereotypes banned or just gender ones?

But let's kick up a fuss anyway.... just..... because. :thumbs:

I don't watch ads now but i do remember the blokes were always seen as bumbling idiots trying to avoid the wrath of the wife when he'd done something stupid in the kitchen.Never really bothered me tbf.

simply because the discrimination against men has been ignored for 40 years....we hear about female discrimination 24 hours a day. a point you would actually agree with me in private, but not on here in front of the left wing comrades

its just you that doesnt care due to your self loathing male hatred

That's true, Vicky is notorious for not speaking her mind tbf

Of course it is. :pat:

Maybe I have bigger things to worry about than a bloke on the telly not knowing how to work a washing machine. Heck my step dad would find the operation of a washing machine akin to rocket science and hasn't washed a thing in his life.

But, hey men are victims of everything so who am I to argue.

40 years? That's a very specific number.

I thought it dated all the way back to before the first world war tbh.

stick to your oh so funny fickle caricature theres a good little boy..dont pretend you care about anyone :thumbs::pat:

I will my love.

And you stick to furiously arguing the toss about pointless sh*te that doesn't exist or mean anything and don't actually contribute to anything that matters in the real world. :pat:

It depends what you mean by this. I do think that some areas are drastically underfunded for men, and have said this on the open forum. I don't remember having any private chats with you so am unsure what you mean by this but I am happy for you to share these private chats we have had where I contradict what I have said on the open forum? :shrug:

:joker: Thats me. A wallflower. My views are often hard to make out...I am not one for being straight to the poin t or anything.

Trouble is Arista we have heard this all before but little changes. You still see the women doing the vacuuming, making the kids lunches and doing the washing-up in most TV ads.

Women are still being portrayed as sex objects by the media not least in the entertainment industry, although I also blame women to some degree as many women play up to that image of themselves.

Many female artists sell sex by selling their own sexuality to sell their music whilst many male artists also sell female sexuality to sell their music - they don't flaunt themselves. It's sad that in this day and age women still feel the need to do that especially highly successful female artists such as Rhiannon and many more. It doesn't do much for female equality - except hinder it.

The men are being far more discriminated against , the vast majority being treated as moronic idiots incapable of anything....thus perpetuating the stereotype in particular of lazy young men...hardly a boost to the young males out there who are falling miles behind women across all education and with their parental rights also miles behind and so much male health issues massively less funded than women and male suicide at 5 times the rates fo women...these adverts really destroy young mens confidence even further. with no education no jobs no fathers in their lives and so much underfunding of male problems is it any wonder male suicide is so high

ah bless I pit you are your self loathing my lovely:pat:
