The Globe and Mail in Canada reports that men are the new women in advertising - depicted as buffons and brain dead characters to be made fun of.Dan Stevelman of Calgary is tired of ads that depict men as "fools who need a woman to show them how to function in society."
Let the backlash begin!

"Men are the new Women"? He who smelt it, dealt it. I know that my masculinity has diminished because of negative stereotypes in canadian advertising... can I have a hug? The reflection of our culture that is Advertising is just that: a reflection, complete with scratches and distortions compared with the "original". That said, am I a women if I am bumbling and incompetent, and vain? Somebody get me a fucking High-Life.
