The rhino symbolizes masucline virility?

Watching TV on Hulu means that I do see the occasional commercial. There's this one birth control pill commercial with a bunch of women standing around blindfolded and feeling a rhinoceros, and I'm not wrong, right? It's insane

I didn't know Bayer made birth control pills whatsoever; I thought all they were good for was preventing heart attacks in older basketball players! Maybe I have been metaphorically blindfolded.

Bayer is the makers of Yaz, which used to be the big birth control commercial on hulu. It turns out I was right; they had to pull it due to someone suing them for not making the dangers clear enough. Which is weird, since that ad, iirc, was images of women having fun convertibles while a voice droned on about the dangers of Yaz for a full minute.

I still contend that the rhino ad is bad. If it hadn't made me think there was maybe a scandal, I would not have gone looking for one!

I found the ad on Youtube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsrrA2JWNlM

It is very admirable how women are never phased by anything that happens to and around them in commercial land!

I was searching for this ad on the internet and I couldn't find it before this, so thanks. The reason I was searching for this commercial is because it is exactly the same as a Rumi poem. Here's the poem:

Some Hindus have an elephant to show.
No one here has ever seen an elephant.
They bring it at night to a dark room.
One by one, we go in the dark and come out
saying how we experience the animal.
One of us happens to touch the trunk.
"A water-pipe kind of creature."
Another, the ear. "A very strong, always moving
back and forth, fan-animal."
Another, the leg. "I find it still,
like a column on a temple."
Another touches the curved back.
"A leathery throne."
Another, the cleverest, feels the tusk.
"A rounded sword made of porcelain."
He's proud of his description.
Each of us touches one place
and understands the whole in that way.
The palm and the fingers feeling in the dark are
how the senses explore the reality of the elephant.
If each of us held a candle there,
and if we went in together,
we could see it.

Willingly I accept. The theme is interesting, I will take part in discussion. Together we can come to a right answer. I am assured.
