The ‘I Wear No Pants’ ad from Dockers that aired during the Super Bowl.

So, let me get this straight: are the fat, happy, joyful, bearded, singing men walking around without pants on REAL MEN or not?

For interest, I looked up the definition of ‘wear the pants‘ at thefreedictionary.com:

to be the person in charge in a marriage or family

(it’s an idiom by the way, in case that comes up the next time you are on Jeopardy)

Okay, now I understand.  The guys walking around in the field without pants have the time to do this because their wives are busy being in charge of the household.  If only these guys put on a pair of Dockers pants.

What I like about this ad (along with the other 323 commercials and TV/movie appearances from weak, whipped, lazy, unambitious, neanderthal-like men), is that it slaps you in the face – especially if you are a man who threw away your pants a long time ago because someone else HAD TO pick up the slack from your abdication of responsibilities.

What’s your take on this?
