While I do, of course, agree with you regarding the ridiculous chauvinistic nature of much advertising. In particular that ap - which, when I found the thing online I was pleased to see they had been forced to withdraw.

However, I am willing to bet that distancing women - and to a lesser extent decent men - doesn't halve their market. I'm pretty sure that the majority of crappy green energy drink consumers are men.

Hope that it was your stinging rebuke that forced them to take it back. A victory for Jessabulous.

That's terrible about your boyfriend. I wish you both the best in this troubling time. I hope that nothing happens that you can't overcome together
