Seriously, what happened to my country???? Why are we not screaming bloody murder over this product? Let's just start with how fucking sexist it is to use the words "skinny" and "girl" to appeal to the American adult female demographic...and end with their catch phrase "drink like a lady"...I think the commercial is just attempting to hide the fact (and not very well), that it is a company that approves of the idea of us all thinking that the ideal American woman should be skinny, and thought of as girls and not women, and that we all sit around doing our nails and giggling, when left alone with alcohol and no men around...It just rubs me in all the wrong ways...
