Does anyone know what the controversy was about the Pelaton commercial?
I’m confused.

Apparently it was some commercial with a husband getting his wife a pelaton workout machine for Christmas.

And apparently a lot of people got upset about it and pelaton apologized and pulled the commercial.

Am I missing something?

Some people think it's misogynistic because wifey is already thin and therefore doesn't need to work out.

Some people are thrown by the overall dystopian vibe to the whole thing.

I also think they're trying to create content creators for some reason. Probably to make it to easier to profile us if more people are blathering into their phones.

It's quite a game they have setup.

One time I got Scarlette an 'ab cruncher' that she had literally begged for as a Christmas gift. It almost caused the first apocalypse, and left a big dent in my truck.

They claimed it was sexist for a man to buy a woman an exercise machine and that it was demeaning to woman. It was not as most women would love a bike like that. I know I would.

So is a dishwasher or washing machine still ok? Is the river and rocks more appropriate? How about a sandwich maker? That seems romantic

Isn't exercise for everyone? Isn't that how people stay fit? Maybe Some fat people objected.
