    Yes,=20
    some of the items perpetuate a stereotype, but women do the same =
with men,=20
    and so do TV commercials,=20


  TV commercials that are degrading to men are those that show them as =
complete idiots when it comes to laundry, cooking, or taking care of a =
baby. Not to brag, but when it comes to taking care of the house, the =
laundry, cooking, and the baby, the only thing I cannot do is breast =
feed a baby. Women would never put up with commercials showing them not =
knowing how to mow the grass, change a spark plug, or fix the screen =
door. Just because I have never seen my wife do these things, doesn't =
mean women can't.=20

  There's a pretty easy way to keep from being offended by these =
commercials--don't watch them. With the exception of the occasional news =
event I've avoided commercial TV for some years now and nothing I've =
seen lately causes me to believe I've been culturally deprived of much. =
We recently reconnected to the cable and once in a while I get talked =
into watching some new show--I am usually shocked at how banal they have =
become. Perhaps they always were and I just didn't notice.
