If you think we're politically correct...
...be happy you are not British. English feminists are complaining that this Christmas ad for the Marks & Spencer department store is demeaning to women.
As Ad Freak points out, the Brits simply have no idea how demeaning advertising can be...

On first viewing, the Go Daddy commercial *does* appear to be quite sexist and demeaning. However I will have to watch it several more times to determine just how bad it is.

Brits have no problems with a send up every now and then, mate.
Even these nutter fems you've mentioned.

Demeaning or not, and I don't care anyway, this commercial was well made.
They polished the dialog, made the hearing look real. And the, ahem, witness did a good job.
Her garment seemed faulty. But she didn't let that upset her.
