it's guerilla marketing. As someone said, it is a whisper campaign designed to make Penney's seem hip, something it has tried desperately to do for decades.

Think about it. An ambitious NY ad kid spends beaucoup time and money and risk to craft a sophisticated lame joke? I can imagine Arnold Horshack with his jackass laugh as being the sort of guy who would laugh at something like this.

Moreso, any kid wanting to knock something like this out would do it in his spare time with friends and a vidcam, not commandeering professional contacts to spend ad company time to produce what amounts to a weak joke.

JCPenney got what it wanted from the ad agency, lots of viral marketing and an injection of coolness.

Aren't your own daughters choosing and encouraging certain behaviors and attitudes in young men?

After all, if the hot women quit chasing rednecks in pickup trucks with gun racks on them (as one stereotype), the guys would work out another model to emulate.

I know when I was growing up a sensitive young man, the pressure from the women around me was palpable as to how I should not be or act a certain way. Sometimes they encouraged me, sometimes they discouraged me. The goal always being in their mind that somehow they were helping me to be the ideal man that they WANTED out of me.

If women started geeking out over geeks tomorrow, all the so called tough guys who fart loudly and scratch their crotch would begin to act like Bill Gates too. If women went ga ga over Queer Eye for the Straight Guy gay guys, as happened in my college in NYC, then all the guys would begin to be 'social gays', straight guys who ACT gay to get closer to the women they want to fuck.

Maybe it's me, but the author sure seems narcissistic. Kids are not a plaything to mold to your political prejudices and to wrap your neuroses around.

Nevermind that only women possess the only organ of either sex whose only known function is the orgasm.

Some men can orgasm from having their NON-functional (no other function than pleasure) nipples tweaked.

Prostate massage also causes orgasm, though one can argue whether it truly has no other function.

"Male Supplicant" and "Female Supplicant"?

Who needs governments to lord over them anyways? Much of the world's problems can be traced back to people unquestioningly obeying supposed authority that decides and chooses to do what is best for ITSELF, not what is best for its constituency.

(This is why we have the current regime entrenched in Washington and running this nation into the ground. Because nobody DARES to question it or its authority, nor have they taken steps to even analyze its potent, focused, and deliberate and belligerent malice against the American People. But that is for another day)

Marry if you want. You do not need crusty old men and women telling you otherwise, do you?

If you want to be heard out, lemme aks YOU.

..

Do you think men and their grievances have been heard out by FEMINISTS? !?!?

If SO, when did this portentous event EVER occur??? ???? ??

Whosoever said women should EVER be heard out????

You women want a one way street: you want to make the demands of men, yet you also want to keep your ears shut out FROM men.

maybe this is one reason Hillary gets such a bad outing. we men KNOW the score.

we KNOW we are not getting out needs met or even HEARD by women.

Society goes TWO WAYS. Men and women together.

Tell me when you women are READY to hear us men air our angers and grivances. I want to ATTEND that TWO MINUTE FIRTEEN SECOND EVENT.

that a man's morality, or honesty, or decency, or integrity is second or third AFTER his sexiness (or, EVEN, totally irrelevant) then, yes, you will get girls trying to chase down the scumbags of the planet who get sucked in by big tits, short skirts, and dumbness.

Feminism really ought to do its homework. Study after study after study of men and their wants proves over and over that most men want a GGG girl who has some ambition and brains, is kind and honest and (TADA!) has A FREAKING LIFE OF HER OWN.

To get a life of her own, a girl needs interests BEYOND makeup and heels.

I guess that is how girls operate. They are lazy and stubborn. They get sucked in by the vortex of their own prejudices young, then they persist even well AFTER they have failed over and over and over to find a DECENT CHAP.

Sure, you can get lousy shallow men, but is this what you women want? TO be dollies?

Methinks, women fail to analyze or see possibilities beyond this and WORSE, fail to then instill in their youth some element of self valuation based on more than tits.

IT is a problem of the expectation forming the result and women are in charge of it-- God KNOWS I've passed up hundreds of bimbos to find the brainy girl I am now happy with (and whom I am keeping quite happy).
