The Guiness ad for beta males

Storyboard: Raining. Pretty brunette in Iris & Ink trench and skirt sufficiently above the knee comes out of a Lean In and, oopsy, she has no umbrella. Oh my God, that's so hysterical. So she runs to a passing salaryman and huddles underneath his. He's surprised, obviously, the last half-Asian to come up on a white guy in the rain was The Ring and we all know how that ended. (Code for "Asian" by walking by a Chinese restaurant.) She gazes into his eyes. "We're headed the same way, right?" she NLPs. "Yeah!" he responds, but five steps later you can see his pacemaker go off as she blue balls him for another umbrella that crosses their path, this time a basketball player's. (Everybody still with me? Let's keep going.) A few steps later, she froggers off towards the next passing guy, and when she settles in their eye contact lingers for longer than this married guy has had in a decade. "After you," she says in some kind of way that means some kind of thing. Three more steps, and she dumps him and his thrifty tote bag for a luxury SUV. She closes the door, a sigh of relief. She made it.

So? How do you feel? Here's the tag line: "it's all in how you get there." Well, how did she get there?

Here's one interpretation: she's a cunt, by which I mean a woman. The commercial represents a reality about women, hopping from guy to guy, taking, taking, taking. And that sigh at the end was what she really thinks of men. =choads.

You'll observe that this harpy never said thank you, she never even said excuse me. She just assumed it was ok, she was entitled, the world belongs to women, and when she got as far as his five and a half inches could take her, she was off to the next guy, black guys and homewrecking. Even better, she is proud of how she pulled it off, because getting to her car isn't the only goal, learning how to manipulate emasculated men is just as important, note she never used a woman. The tag line reminds women that they shouldn't feel to guilty about it, men are dispensable. As an aside, buy a Cadillac.

LMFAO. This guy needs a fucking award.

This article is fantastic because, for once, it doesn't sit around and blame women for everyone's problems.

It shows men exactly HOW we reached this way: we let it happen.

We let the world become this way. We became spoiled, entitled, and lazy. We stopped being men and women found the opening they need.

It's like when you have a little sister and she starts demanding things and you give in one time and then she keeps taking and taking and taking until you finally put your fucking foot down.

We didn't put our foot down. We became betas and started letting the world tell us what it meant to be a man.

I mostly disagree with this assertion:

reducing yourself because you think it's a show of solidarity is a straight up chick thing to do

Games are all about the challenge and thrill of overcoming artificial restrictions to achieve objectives that are normally easy.

Are you "reducing yourself" by forcing yourself to dribble the basketball instead of running with it? No, you're challenging yourself. Are you "reducing yourself" by forcing yourself not to tear down the basket and repeatedly push the ball through the detached rim? No, you're challenging yourself. Are you "reducing yourself" by forcing yourself not to wrestle smaller opponents to the ground to take them out of the game? No, you're challenging yourself.

The men in the ad's scenario wanted to play basketball with a friend who is completely incapable of being a factor in any normal basketball game. So they changed the rules—the artificial restrictions—so they they could all enjoy the challenge together. Nothing wrong with that.

Things Thelastpsychiatrist writes always makes me think.

I hate this type of commercials. They're so fucking corny and American; whenever I watch them it literally feels like my intelligence is being insulted. I make a point to never buy anything sold to me using cutesy/"moving" music and "inspirational" narration. Fuck you, Guiness, I'll stick to my $1/0,5l Polish lagers and wheelchair-free sports.

All commercials do this.

1) Montage of usually attractive individual(s) having fun/overcoming adversity/enjoying a serene landscape

2) Individual consumes brand

With beer, car, and other stereotypically masculine interests, the commercials are more oriented toward defining masculine identity.

Arthur Guinness (the founder) spied for the British.
