Media & Men

Saw this ad for a mini-walrus broom: "Encourage your kids (or husband!) to clean up after themselves with this fun walrus-inspired mini broom..."

The "or husband" part really bugged me. It revealed how our media views men. My husband is not 4 years old and if I ask him to help clean something up, he does. He's not the idiot that our society makes him out to be. He doesn't need a cute little toy to inspire him. I hate that our media spins men out to be idiots - They are NOT!
