Closed Stop negative images of men in advertising

Closed on

We, the undersigned, call on the DCMS to stop the bad images of men in the media and negative affects this is having on boys growing up.

it's commonplace to see adverts portraying men as being useless idiots, and too incompetent to complete simple household task which isn't helpful for women either.

Male objectification is also becoming prevalent in advertising and more young men are either developing eating disorders or abusing steroids as a result.
