My god, what doesn't offend some people anymore. Peloton (stationary bikes) has an ad where a guy buys his wife/gf an exercise bike for Xmas. The next year she comments how great she has felt since she began exercising I guess. Now, Peloton is being accused of being sexist for encouraging his wife to concentrate on her body to satisfy him. I must have watched that commercial 20-30 times before yesterday and not once did I think anything wrong with the ad. I thought they were trying to sell an exercise bike, not a porn video.
Too often people get their panties in a bunch over nothing.
A couple years ago I bought my wife, or should I say us, an exercise bike. The main reason was she had a knee replaced and thought this would be good for recovery. She wasn't overly happy but not because she thought it was a hint to lose some weight, she was mad at how much I spent. A pretty usual response whenever I buy something.
