Commercial shows a group of women singing "Holding Out For A Hero" By Meatloaf and Bonnie Tyler. Sexist commercial basically portrays every man as an alcoholic that drinks until he passes out when they go out. Sorry, it's not all men... It's just the guys they chose to date / bring home after meeting them at a bar / club. That's what they get. Shame on Heineken for putting us all in a box.. When you know damn well they date the guy anyway, knowing he's an a**hole. Don't blame it on the beer.

Perhaps, the men are drinking because of who they are with.

George Carlin said it best: "Here's all you need to know about men and women: Women are crazy. Men are stupid. And the main reason women are crazy is because men are stupid." Now add beer.

I agree. That is a terrible song to begin with.

This ad is on almost every commercial break of NBCSN's coverage of hockey, its an instant mute.

The first problem is that this commercial attempts to sell Heineken. No real man would be caught dead drinking that swill. |

Exactly! What we "need" is a commercial for Pranqster beer by North Coast Brewing Company. Try some, if you ever see it in your local stores. (Total Wine carries it.) |

I lost count how many times this stupid freggin ad aired last night on Spike TV.
*No idea why I put myself in this sad situation watching this channel - I just like watching moron criminals on COPS rerun marathons...then I proceed to put myself though a 4, 5 hour commercial filled hell by watching a very edited "Scarface" |

Coincidentally, that was the rerun episode of COPS I watched yesterday---"Morons on Parade". Here's one of 'em. Total moron. |

I think the real unintended message behind the commercial is....
...Heineken drinkers are pussies. |

...the ads take aim and lay their claim to the heart and the soul of the spender
Jackson Browne - The Pretender C'mon, man! Joe Biden - 46th President of the United States |

Yeah, he not only IS a pussy, he probably HAS one, too.
