I don’t have much time to blog today, but I will MAKE TIME for this.
I came across this YouTube video on Facebook posted by my friend and fellow working mom blogger Robyn of Who’s the Boss? After watching it, I simply had to post it for all our WMAG readers who were as annoyed as I was by the Dodge Charger commercial during the Super Bowl. You know, “Man’s Last Stand“? Ugh. Here’s the spoof, “Woman’s Last Stand.” Freakin’ awesome. (FYI: This video drops the “F” bomb.)

Now, that is a funny commercial!
I wasn't really offended by the original commercial, and the woman's version hits a little close to home to be funny! (for me anyway!)
Part of me finds this funny, but the other part of me wants to smack these women around and give them my standard lecture about choices.
Don't make his lunch in the morning if you don't want to….etc…etc…
Maybe I've read too many books like the Kite Runner while snowed in day after day. Or maybe the horrible situation we are dealing with in our community with our pediatrican has made me annoyingly righteous.
But all of my previous complaints about life being hard have flown out the window and jumped into the ocean.
The greatest thing about feminism is that we are no longer forced to follow a certain path. If you don't like the one you've chosen, ladies in the video, use the talent and verve that got you to where you are and turn it on its ear!
Hmmm. Methinks I am projecting my own questions of work and family balance on to innocent actresses in a youtube video….
I didn't look at it too deeply. It just made me LOL. I appreciated the antithesis to the typical male BS that was the original spot.
