Am I the only one that didn't think that peloton ad was ridiculously sexist?

    Link? (If it's forum appropriate of course, though I assume it is if it's an advertisement)

    Nope, I don't see the big deal at all. It's a fitness bike. It's not like he said "get on that fatty, you need to slim those thighs!"

    The world is getting way, way too fucking soft and it's getting pretty pathetic.

    Even the forum isn't immune to it though we can't talk about mod actions lollll 9_9

    How is it sexist at all?

    @Ryan_Vickers People are saying she looks terrified, and that it's sexist her husband bought her a piece of fitness equipment for Christmas.
    Right. As if guys would be bitching if it were the other way around. Fitness is enjoyed by both sexes.

    wow xD Well, I mean there are certain gifts that stereotypically you probably should not get your partner, like a bathroom scale, treadmill, vacuum, etc. :P but even with that in mind I don't think that was the intended message here at all, nor is it one I would read from this by default.

    personally i think she looks really excited about it and loved it. almost like it's something she wanted...

    it definitely has a weird vibe, especially for something that's trying to make the product look desirable, but still nothing remotely sexist
