I am not a man. I know this because I have never driven a manual transmission, and people have told me as much.

i'm not a man, because I will ask for directions

(not to make light of the video's message - it's preaching to the choir here)

I don't get it. I watched it twice and I'm confused. Is this about wife beating?

My other avatar is a Porsche

yeah - "clumsy me - I was hit by a ddor"

that beardy guy was 'the door'

other guys were the staircase (I fell down the staircase)

(I fell off my bike)

it's saying that it's regular looking guys doing this crap - not the people you'd expect.

Messages on a subject as important as this shouldn't need special prog-lyric-decoding skills to understand. The makers of this ad got so in love with their own vision and style that forgot to make it understandable for the same masses they are trying to reach with the every-man-could-be-a-wife-beating-a****le true message.

Anyway, men who do that are garbage and a big pile of it would be a good visual

Oh wow you tricked me in a most beautiful grabbing fashion, Olav. I love every single one of those men. Outstanding attention grabbing advert on a serious topic, while not portraying a victim nor any evil. This is good, serious!

big hug to you Teddy Bear's Son

Awww You silly very adorable cute things! Let me explain, this vid is actually against women abuse but instead of showing a woman all bruised up being the victim and the man being evil. It shows that one should not stereotype men, while equally bringing the cause of abuse to the forefront.

No idea but we always need to set a number, Dayvenkirq

it's crucial to have a sense of time, without this we might as well live in outer space

hug!
