Should Men Consider It Discriminatory When Commercials State

Why are the criminals in home alarm commercials always white?

Simple: If any TV commercial had a black man as the robber the NAACP, the black community and liberals would all be up in arms with claims of discrimination and slander. Yeah, right -- as if only white males rob homes...

List five examples of: stereotyping and discrimination?

Stereotyping:
All blondes are dumb.
All guys want is sex.
All (insert race) are lazy.
All young people are irresponsible.
All old people are boring.

Discrimination:
Talking down to (or avoiding) blondes.
Having sex when you are too young or uninterested because
that's what boys expect if you're a girl/that's what you're
supposed to do it you're a boy.
Not hiring (insert race).
Not giving young people a chance.
Not giving old people the time of day.

You can probably think of dozens of stereotypes you unintentionally succumb to a day - if you let those affect your actions, that's discrimination.

How come men don't complain about being objectified in the media and society in general?

I've read several articles about men objecting to being objectified in the media. They clearly are as objectified as women. The media pushed image is just as unrealistic as that for females. Men are becoming sex objects in commercials, movies, tv shoes, etc. As the commercial industry has come to realize that women enjoy looking at good looking men, they've taken off on the same route that is used for women in the media.

A prime example: Every see the commercials for "Bod"? Its for a colone (in what looks like a Windex bottle for some reason). In any case, the premise of the commercial is to show half naked men performing strenuous exercise-- each with an over the top perfect body and to the background chant of "I want you bod". If that's not objectifying men, then I don't know what is.

This trend is (relatively) new but there are still many articles of men and women speaking out against it. You just have to look in the right places. Why don't they have rallies or protests? Social pressure. Socially men are discouraged from making the same complaints that women make. Its not right, but men typically are supposed to be "manly" and "unconcerned" about something like this. Its a complete crock of s*it, of course. This effects men just as much as women, but I think they're more reluctant to speak out because of how they fear other men will view them.

There are just some things that women have more social freedom to do, sad to say.

Lesbians state that all women are lesbian to some extent but refuse to admit it. (their opinion)?

Your call ?

A)Yes, they are true, i'm attracted more by women than men, but i'm straight for reasons such religion, society, parents and family.

B)Probably Yes, They are true to some extent cause i want to make out with another women just once or so(for experiment).

C)Probably No, i only fantasize about other women, i could never do anything in reality.

D)No, they are completely wrong. i find it disgusting to fantasize about other women.
