"Nice guys" finish last and what women want are the brutes. Lovely.

This commercial is just one example of how our whole society is being brainwashed. These kinds of images and messages literally saturate our world and it's difficult to not let some of that sink in, even if on a subliminal level. It's horribly damaging to us all.

By the way, having some time to reflect, I think my choice of title for this thread was poorly considered. I'm still agog over a thread on GD in which it was posited that women are programmed to seek out the hypermasculine, barbarian male. Therefore, I'm going to edit the thread title to be less pithy.
