Why do almost all buisness related adds on Yahoo feature bitchy looking women?

Question

No men? What happend. Have they all been liquidized!? I'm sorry but they seem to be entirely composed of young women with thick rimmed designer glasses smiling like robots at the photographer. It's just not fair.

Do you agree?

Answer 1

When was the last time you saw a bitchy looking man?

You really want male representation in ads that are dominated by "bitchy looking smiling robots?"  (your words!)

I dunno, if you really hate the ads so much, feel grateful that men aren't being represented that way!  :)

Answer 2

Because they're out to get you.

Watch out!

Answer 3

Smile. Because bitchy looking women are still much more attractive than smiling you, dear. Do you seriously think that anyone would listen or read something with your picture on it?

Answer 4

People in the marketing business know how to use women with The Look to seduce YOU.

Answer 5

Because women like to look at women AND men like to look at women.

I'd rather see a young s**y business woman than some dude smiling like a used car salesman.

Answer 6

Yes I do.  I love Yahoo!  but guess they like other corporations, must bow down to the Politically Correct.    

And totally unrelated but still weird it that whenever I call customer service about a bill

(like electricity, phone, cable, child support, etc) it is a woman answering the phone!  What happened to men?  Are they no longer allowed to have those jobs?!@

Answer 7

Women are valued for bitchyness in the workplace.  I think it people see it as a get things done sort of attitude in women.  It fills the workplace with jerks as far as I am concerned.

Answer 8

What's not fair about this? Is your modelling agent not returning your calls? Face it, in the ad industry you do what you have to do for profits. It has nothing to do with being fair or PC. And really, if that's the worst problem you've had all day consider yourself very lucky.

Answer 9

What's a "bitchy-looking" woman? You can tell people's personalities just by looking at them?

Hopefully you never get called for jury duty. "He's guilty,  your honor. He LOOKS guilty."

Answer 10

Psssht...yeah, Kiki!

Answer 11

I think they are pretty attractive.  Were you looking for someone like this?

Answer 12

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  When one sees beauty, that person has a beautiful soul.   When one sees "bitchy", that person has a bitchy soul.

Answer 13

So...now you think it's unfair for Men because you're not constantly exploited because of how you look like Women are? The ad got your attention didn't it? Looks like they were successful after all.

Answer 14

d**n....who spilled the Top Secret Feminazi Plans?!?!?!

It was YOU wasn't it PROUD!!!!

Answer 15

We see the world as we are.

I guess if you're seeing b*****s everywhere, you must a....

...too!

EDIT: Tiger - women have always had phone jobs, that's how they got into the job market in the first place, as secreatries. If you're willing to take those jobs I'll gladly be a CEO in your stead. I don't know why it bothers you that there are more women having jobs that most people don't want or consider demeaning. Have you ever worked in a call center?

Answer 16

Mike T is right. Pictures of women on ads actually bring in more sales.

Answer 17

To make * men ask questions?

Answer 18

I don't get that.  Yahoo targets ads at you that it thinks you will need or use.  I get cosmetic ads and rent a purse ads.  Evidently, your profile implies that you will buy anything if it is marketed by a B looking woman.
