Whiny, anti-woman Dodge ad hitting a nerve

Amid an unsurprising bevy of fairly anti-female ads on the Super Bowl, the Dodge Charger commercial (above) from Wieden + Kennedy stood out as a particularly gibe-filled lady hate-on. Dodge's litany of charges (some of which aren't even women's fault)—that men must sit through two-hour meetings at work, recycle according to city regulations, and walk the dog in the morning (isn't he your best friend?)—were supposed to be funny, but came off as whiny. Dodge's idea that if men don't get what they want, when they want it, they somehow lose a little manhood seems overblown.
