Cupcake single entendre
Have you seen the Electrolux commercial? The one where the lady gets an Electrolux oven to bake cupcakes for her many attractive, single male neighbors? Yes. The message of the commercial is that you need an Electrolux because then hot men will come to your front door with an empty plate sheepishly begging for your CUPCAKES. THEY WANT YOUR CUPCAKES

It's like a coal pile of awful compressed into a gleaming diamond of wrong.
Take this sentence (please): "Just because a woman is single doesn't mean she doesn't understand the right appliances can help you find your McHottie." It's a grammatic train wreck and clunky as hell, and I haven't gotten into what's wrong with it yet.

Except it's also incredibly dumb, and condescending, and fairly insulting to the men involved as well. Er, kind of like when they use women to use sex to market... Oh, and except for the whole playing on using traditional gender roles as a not really even thinly veiled metaphor for sexual power. Which is also kind of like the using cars/beer/sports as a backdrop for the women used as props in using sex to market to men. So really, still the same treatment, equal even if only by way of being equally patronizing.
Equal treatment is inherently good, right? I hope? 'Cause otherwise, this is just head-patting get-back-in-the-kitchen tripe.
I think I just used up all my blindly determined optimism for the rest of the week trying to find something good in that.
