Progressive Insurance

Progressive Insurance is not about to let State Auto corner the market on demeaning men.  In this long-running series, Flo, a strong and capable female (a notion which I celebrate) encounters two bumbling, effeminate males who shill for a competitor.  Not only do the men represent a weaker competitor of Progressive, they also demonstrate themselves to be poor examples of competent males.

I'm going to be completely fair with my criticism.  Progressive is counter-balancing their emasculating Flo with a ruggedly handsome spokesMAN, oddly called "The Messenger".
