Found in an LJ friend's journal, passing it on to you:
Method, a company that makes eco-friendly cleaning products, don't care that you think advertisements depicting sexual harassment in a woman's own home are inappropriate and downright disgusting.

Read it, get angry, send letters, don't buy their products, and tell others not to, either.
I mean, I have a pretty dirty, cynical sense of humor, but this ad isn't funny--it's creepy as hell and only made me want to avoid Method products in the future. Way to go, guys.
The most frustrating thing is that they probably think negative publicity is still publicity, and they'd be right--but they have seriously damaged their reputation.
I'm a feminist. You should be too. Radical notion that women are people and all that.
