This is the post I made on my class discussion board when discussing gender roles:
I saw another commercial for Centrum vitamins a few weeks ago and was all ticked. Here is its brother commercial:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlsUBXwq2L4Yep, that is a commercial for men's health. And here I thought women could watch tv and golf. Silly me. I was unable to find original commercial I had seen but it was the same idea, it flashed a BBQ grill, a recliner (women don't enjoy comfort), and a remote control.But women can be found in centrum commercials, I was unable to find the girl version of this same commercial online but it I remember two of this items mentioned: shoes and chocolate.Women are found in other commercials as well, especailly in the cleaning department:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0YPsuZYZIY Notice that Mr. Clean isn't actually cleaning, he is too busy saving the day. And by saving the day I mean providing for the woman's cleaning needs. Luckily strong, dapper Mr. Clean was there to help, otherwise it would have been like any other cleaning commercial...a one woman show.
