Internation Woman's Day is crap. One whole day? Gee, thanks. How 'bout treating women decently and appreciatively year 'round?

And are we living in the same world here? I think that MOST ads and promotions and such that are meant to hit on "strong and manly" male market, and so much as say just that. Beer, deodorant, cars, clothes, razors, food... the lot! Certainly more than there are ads appealing to "strong women." It's all about P.O.V., I suppose. I get just as pissed about any ads showing the frantic family that can't seem to even basically function until Mom gets home to cook, clean and take care of them as you do about ads that single out gender. We've all got our gripes (obviously, this is a peeve of mine... sorry!)

and now back to your regularly scheduled Gomez...
