I didn't really care for the commercial (I thought it was tacky). I can see where people would interpret it as a bash on women in general. I think the reason I was semi-offended by it is that my perception is that if a girl that young is that manipulative, someone has taught her to be that way and use her sexuality to get what she wants. It's not something that comes natural.

As the sexist pig that I am, I honestly wish my wife would use sex to get what she wants from me more often. But that's within a very healthy marriage relationship, and really it would only be in my mind anyway. I'm sick that way.

You could certainly say that the commercial is over-analyzed, but I just really didn't care for it. Not sure if it's for the same reason Wonder was indicating, though. I guess I don't interpret that commercial as implying that women have to use sexuality to get what they want... only that they can if they want. Nevertheless, I still found it kinda offensive.
