It really is nice to see the tables flipped sometimes, even if I'd prefer there not to be tables at all, as it were. Don’t worry, that was exactly my conflict with the ad.

My biggest problem with the ad is the fact that it does nothing to challenge societal norms—all women are attracted to men, only men who have a "ripped" body type are attractive—that are just not true. It's hard to appeal to women when you're shutting out large percentages of them. I agree.

It actually DID inspire me to check my breasts. I guess I just appreciated something that allowed ME to act like a brainless hornball for once...and it made the irritating but important task of BSE seem a little more fun.
