Listen I'm not going to respond to a woman saying an ad is gross and off putting by telling her to lighten up.

That’s why I responded to you and not her 😅

Why not? A woman can't have a idiotic opinion? That's sexist!

They absolutely can. This just isn't really one of them. Ads in the 90s all treated women as sex objects to be "played". And this ad isnt wild in that regard, but you're kidding yourself if you think they didn't choose that angle and lighting deliberately.
