Cheerio!

A Cheerio ad that apparently shows the stereotypical couple fight of "so you're saying I look fat in this?". Hmm. Personally, I thought the guy kind of came off as an asshole with the FIRST line of "so you trying to watch you're weight?" "Uhm, NO. Why?" "Oh, just looking at this box.." I'm sure he didn't mean to say in such a "Oh good, you need to" sort of tone. And she jumped on it, acting the "overly defensive and insecure" woman. This kind of was like "shut up women when a man almost criticizes you and tries to back track what he said". Why was he sputtering his words? I know the poor fellow kind of fucked up, and I found it amusing that she didn't take it.
Discrimination? I think it's on both genders. Women are stereotyped here as overly defensive and the men as dumb ass. So now when I eat (if I do) Cheerios, I'll be subconsciously thinking "I must be an insecure fatass who needs to lose weight". What other subconscious things come from this to you? Thanks Cheerios!
