Dumb Men (Entry VII)


Taking a look into Dumb Men made my night. First of all, you're introduced to a homepage filled with videos that bash on men. As I browsed trough the site, I found it simple and click friendly. Nowadays, in many video hosting sites, you are knocked down by ads and surveys, it makes it impossible to even enjoy a video. It's a great easy website with many commercials and videos that have amazing captions upon clicking on a video. I believe the admins are women who have been offended to the extreme by sexists men just because the captions are completely vulgar. Overall, I have never heard of a site such as this one and I find it very interesting. Why? Because there are commercials that are   aired on television, but we, as the audience, do not pay attention because we are focused on what manufacture's product has yet to present to the public. One commercial that stood out to me was the Trojan Condom Commercial. It stood out the most simply because I got a great laugh out of it. The situation was that a man, who was hours from getting married, went to his fiancé's house to find her. Shortly after arriving, he is found with her sister, whispering in his ear that she had wanted him to herself before he gets married. He bursts out the door and into his car. With cheering and clapping from next door, he is applaud by his fiancé's father, who congratulated him because he had "passed the test." In reality, he had gone back to his car to get condoms, because he did have intention of having sex with his fiancé's sister. The tome behind the commercial was sexual, in my opinion. The main reasons were because the fiancé's sister had been seducing him as he walked through the door, undressing her dress as she walked and looked back to grab his attention immediately. In the end, the man was saved simply because he had left the condoms in the car. If not, a whole different story would have unfolded. Overall, I enjoyed browsing through this site. It had angry admins who were putting these "dumb men" out there for the viewers to see how dumb they really look live.
