Speaking of memes: I don’t know or care exactly what year this happened, but FFS.
The subject was this pic, which must have become one of the most famous (and funniest) ever:
Funny, that is, except to some Swedish asshole:
The image created controversy in 2018 when it was ruled sexist by a Swedish ad watchdog.
Swedish internet service provider Bahnhof used it for a recruitment ad where the girlfriend in the image was “your current workplace” while the other woman was “Bahnhof”.
But the ombudsman concluded: “The advertisement objectifies women. It presents women as interchangeable items and suggests only their appearance is interesting… It also shows degrading stereotypical gender roles of both men and women and gives the impression men can change female partners as they change jobs.”
My take?
No doubt, he’d take exception to that one too, as it turns a wondrous object of desire (a woman’s vagina) into a humorless fuckwit.
why give attention to these killjoys?
Well, in modern hookup culture, men can change women far easier than changing jobs (last I checked, 2 weeks notice was still considered the norm)…and women don’t seem to have an issue with it (as evidenced by the fact that hookup culture exists at all).
