.... those Lenor ads.
Now I am the first person to advocate women being confident and assertive etc etc
But the outright deceit and trickery these women express towards their partners in these ads I find is quite unacceptable.
I know it is probably just supposed to be humor, but the underlying messages that are being sent here leaves a lot to be desired.
Am I being a bit too sensitive about this?confused3

Oh sorry, How vague can I get!!!!
There are 2 ads:
1st: The girlfriend confronts her partner with a pair of knickers SHE bought and "planted" in his car
2nd: The girlfriend "pretends" she heard a prowler outside, gets him to go and investigate and then locks him out
All this just to have the bed to herself to be able to sleep on her fresh smelling Lenor rinsed sheets!!

I'm not even gona lie, them adverts were mildly amusing. Sometimes you just want to have your bed to yourself especially if its fresh clean sheets,
@niceness what is the underlying message you fear is being sent out
I do not surround myself with weak minded people and will continue not to do so, they only serve to bring you down

What message are they sending??? NONE
They are just trying to sell fabric softner!!!!!lol. I find the Esure adverts much more offensive. The man is so patronising .... I mean they must be trying to portray women as a bunch of gullible idiots ... "dont worry dear its just a commercial...blah blah blah..." LikeWHATEVER you cunt.

What message are they sending?
That men are dumb?
confused3
If we do not have an accurate analysis of the problem, we cannot possibly develop a good strategy to resolve it.
