Ellen DeGeneres Addresses "Feminine" Products

I saw this video a little while ago, and it has a lot to do with what we discussed in the beginning of the semester. Ellen DeGeneres brings to everyone's attention the silly stereotypes of women versus men that companies use to attract a certain gender. I love the lightheartedness she brings to a more serious issue.

haha I love Ellen. I thought she described the issue of gender stereotyping in products very well, bringing in many examples from everywhere.
