I watched it, and seriously, it wasn't that funny, I just cringed. not just degrading to women, degrading to people in general.

I didnt find it overly funny but saw where they were coming from. I think people are just too precious these days.

The add is only offensive to people who like good comedy.
As it has already been said, the men look like the stupid ones. Maybe the Father knows that if the boyfriend drives a Yaris he certinely won't get his daughter pregnant because he probably likes men... |

Oh Hardy ha ha Falzoony, like we didn't see that one eventually coming. :rolleyes:
It was pretty stupid the ad, as was cleverly said before, that ad would have succeeded if it was more subtle. That was the problem there, I disliked it because the attempt at pun failed miserably.. |

I can't imagine what came over Toyota to even authorise making that add. Maybe it's a viral thing.

yes the add is crapolla
not good in this day and age but it was the competition winner that made the add not an add that Toyota commissioned they didn't pay for it except for the prize money/car while i do think that if it was a little more subtle it may have been a great add in the greater scheme of things along the lines of the bugger ads
