Dr Pepper 10 - wtf? "It's not for women."
« on: April 02, 2012, 02:21:05 PM »
I recently saw that stupid commercial and I turned to my wife and said, "Just wait, someone is going to get all offended over this", and once again I was right.

Dr Pepper 10 - wtf? "It's not for women."

I've heard their commercials several times now, and every time I get more and more disgusted.

What the hell is this?

I understand that they are trying to expand their customer base and cater to men who don't think diet soft drinks are macho - or whatever 

But I cannot recall any soft drink or beer or wine or any beverage commercial that proclaimed "It's not for men".

Because I am a woman, am I not supposed to try it?

Seriously - wtf!?!

And liberals claim to be for freedom. Why is it they want to ban everything under the sun?

I know that might sound insulting but I personally am strongly opposed to banning any sort of foodstuff or beverage, people have the ability and right to chose what they consume.

Liberalism is all about the government being a nanny.

Its marketing, thats all.

People have been marketing items specifically to different genders and age groups since the dawn of time - what difference is one more product going to make ?

Tampons and assorted feminine products are marketed to women. I don't see any guys getting offended.

Secret, strong enough for a man, but made for a woman.

What about all the beer commercials showing hot women fawning over some guy because he is drinking that beer?  (I guess the bulls might try those beers)
