They should ban advertisement altogether.

On the one hand the phrase "fiddling while Rome burns" comes to mind. However, key is in the word harmful. The BBC article mentioned men being depicted as stupid and incapable especially in a domestic sense which I think is v harmful from a men's rights perspective. If we have a unconscious belief that men are not capable doing basic chores it's an easy leap to not granting custody because men are dumb amirght? They'll prob put the baby in the washing machine. There was a baby advert mentioned which I do think is pretty old fashioned, boy baby dreaming of being a scientist, the girl baby? Ballet dancer. Obv.
