You missed the point. It is not ridiculous. It is not absurd. It is freakin reality.

Advertising, especially in this video is showing very much how women are seen and used as objects to sell products. It also demonstrates how women are seen and used as sex objects. It gives a message to both women and to masculine people. This is sexism. There is nothing funny about it.

This stuff reinforces the ideas that leads to behavior like rape, like sexually assaulting incapacitated teenage girls and taking pictures for facebook, and all the rest of the sexist crap women put up with including women thinking this sexism is amusing.

You finding it amusing doesn't surprise me. We have tangled before on sexism and how butches can be as sexist as cis men.
