[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people are outraged because of the dynamic portrayed between H and wife, she looks confused, can't decide for herself and then she presents him the video. It looks like she is staying thin for "him" which is incredibly sexist. People wouldn't have cared if the ad's focus was fitness, the focus here was pleasing the H and staying thin for him.[/quote]

That's how you perceived it.  [/quote]

You could also argue that if he gave her a vacuum cleaner it didn't mean that he thought the house was dirty.  He was just giving it to her because he knew how much she enjoyed taking care of her house. But the point exists that there are a whole category of gifts which are generally perceived as "not very nice gifts to give" because they usually have some implied agenda to them.  [/quote]

My husband gave me one and I love it.  He's a serious runner and I gave him a treadmill one year.  We both... wait for it... like evercise!  [/quote]
