the feminists are too busy complaining about the latest KFC ad "that objectifies women and plays on the sexist idea “boys will be boys”.
"The ad recently came to the attention of Collective Shout, a grassroots movement against the objectification of women, and was called out for its unhealthy stereotyping.
The 15-second commercial for KFC’s Zinger popcorn box opens with a young woman checking her appearance in the reflection of a parked car window.
As she leans forward to adjust her cleavage, the window rolls down to reveal a very unhappy mother and two young boys staring open-mouthed.
The woman “saves” herself from further embarrassment by saying “did someone say KFC?” – a catchphrase that is part of a series of ads showing people using KFC to get out of awkward situations.
According to Collective Shout spokesperson Melinda Liszewski, the ad “grooms young boys” as it plays on certain “sexist” behavioural expectations.“
The ad is a play on tired old stereotypes, where young women are sexually objectified for the benefit of men – even young boys – and the males are helplessly transfixed when confronted with the opportunity to ogle a woman’s body,” she said.
and on and on it goes.
