Another Sexist GoDaddy Ad
| February 4, 2013 | Filled under Feminism |
I saw the GoDaddy ad above and thought maybe for once GoDaddy made an ad that made sense and didn’t just use women. And then, I saw the other GoDaddy ad and once again GoDaddy shows their sexist side.
I still have domain names with GoDaddy as they were registered a long time ago and are paid for, but when it comes time to renew they will be moved. I already moved my hosting to GreenGeeks after the CEO of GoDaddy killed the elephant. Sexism and killing endangered species? Not something I want to support.
What did you guys think of the two GoDaddy commercials?

I haven’t seen the commercials (no TV) but I love to see people living their values and refusing to support organizations that do things that are offensive. I stopped shopping at Lowes after I learned they pulled advertising because a television program featured Muslims as real, ordinary people – which they are.
UGH i find the first commercial SO MUCH MORE offensive than the second one. And not only to women- but insulting to men as well- implying that the wives are there to “mother” the “stupid” husbands. Bah.
good for you for moving your domains.
I can see that for sure but that’s not what I got from it, didn’t even think about that. I took it more as just they were thinking ahead a bit better, while the husbands weren’t. I guess it would be better if they at had one couple that changed roles. I guess I was just so surprised at the lack of boobs ha.
The second one however I took as you can’t be smart and beautiful.
