I am responding to the crazy Heineken beer ad. Now don’t get me wrong-ILOVE beer as much as the next guy (even though I am a girl). However, whatI don’t like is the depiction of a woman even more robotic than EVER!!Sure, before women were bikini clad, men-loving, partying creatures that fell for the man with a beer. But now women have been reduced to EVEN LESS,- mere robotic creatures that serve their man and have no emotion input/output whatsoever. Sure the commercial is kinda funny (if you really try to see it that way), but just goes to show that even in the future women are still preferred simple, silent, and best of all-serving! (Would it have been too much to use a mechanical keg that serves itself??)

Stepford Wives-ish. The commercial seems to reduce the woman figure into nothing more but a manufacturing machine. First babies, now beer and sexuality. Though innovative as the commercial might look, there are some implications. The ad sure got us talking, I wonder if that was the point of Heineken? Good or bad publicity, either way the name Heineken is still being spread like mad-crazy flu.
