Dorito creates "lady friendly" crisps

There's so many things I could say.


Doritos launch 'lady-friendly' crisps with quieter crunch | Daily Mail Online

Now Doritos is making ‘lady-friendly’ tortilla chips that are quieter to eat, less messy and come in a packet designed to fit in handbags.

The company says women do not like to crunch loudly or lick their fingers in public while eating the snacks – unlike men.

sexist much?!

 

[Fool for Buffy]

The loud annoying crunchiness is the best part! Also, seriously, in 2018 you’d think a company would be smarter than to be sexist like that.

You would think the chick that thought up the idea might have ran it by some other skirts to see if maybe she was the only one that it applied to.

Skirts...? Ha.

So, women are supposed to prefer limp bland chips? Who would've known?

I remember McCoy got critised for their 'man crisps' adverts, even though they were poking fun at the idea of 'macho-ness'.
This is just so much worse, how the hell were they even gonna start marketing this?

Just say no to limp, quiet and flavorless...

I'm glad. I'm fed up of patriarchal potato based snacks. Up the crispy sisterhood. 😛

I think Melinda's twitter response on how this is a publicity stunt is apt.

And unfortunately I have this strange desire all of a sudden to eat chips (though not Doritos) and lick my fingers slowly and lingeringly in public. I'm just scared I'll get applause. 😀

Btw, check out this pen aimed at women...or more specifically, the many customer reviews:

Blue thinks girly pink is girly.

Where are the brains at Doritos? Women don't want quiet or mess-free chips. The application for a quiet tortilla chip is at movie snack concessions. You can eat them without disturbing anyone else or missing any of the dialogue because of a crunch that would normally override the movie sound.

I'd actually prefer a mess-free chip, because all that Dorito dust is a pain; I'm NOT going to lick my fingers in public...but it can be noisy because disturbing people is pretty awesome. 😀

Does this mean I won't get to see women lick their fingers no more?

Depends on which women you're hanging around.

Jesus its 2018... I thought sexism was behind us. Obviously I was wrong

#MeToo may have been a bold step forward, but there are still a lot of knuckledraggers out there. There are a couple of jokes that sum this up:

1. I was talking to a feminist the other day. My trial is set for July.

2. The Admiral is addressing the crew of an aircraft carrier:

"From now on there will be strict segregation of the male and female crew members. Any man found in female living quarters will face a fine of $50. A second offence will cost $150. A third offence will cost $500."

One Marine at the back of the crowd stuck his hand up. The admiral said, "Yes?"

"Sir, how much for a season pass?"

I thought sexism was behind us.

What is it doing back there is the real question.
