Glade's Opinion of Women

The first Glade recent Glade commercial I've seen is where the leading lady lights a candle in her fancy little black dress and answers the door to find her friends waiting there. Of course they oooh and aaah over the fragrance, and instead of this woman confiding in her friends that she could buy this great product which doesn't cost a lot, she decides to tell a bold faced lie.

I just don't understand why they feel the need to portray women as lying, deceiving, privileged a--holes. Nor do I understand how they expect to sell products, which are targeted towards women, this way. I would seriously like to meet the woman who watches these commercials and goes "AMAZING! I want to be just like this woman! Let me rush out to the store and buy Glade products so I can pretend to be something I'm not and try to make everyone else see me as better than them! That's a marvelous idea!"

What?  It's a cute commercial, but I suppose some people enjoy creating "a storm in a glass of water"....Get over it, okay?  Sheesh!

Commercials, TV shows, radio shows, movies, music, and books that demean women, men, or other groupings of people are so commonplace that it's not worth getting hung up on one.  It's little use to hone in on one of them, especially in a world where just about any attention (good or bad) is profitable.
