Everybody loves beer - men, women, children with fake IDs. But beer companies don't want one of these groups to enjoy their beer: women. Modern Lady Erin Gibson is on the case of how beer companies like Miller, Budweiser, and Heineken have gone from depicting women in commercials as eye candy hanging out with Spuds MacKenzie to the target of aggression and humiliation.

  • Beer is gross anyway. Stick to more classy stuff, like Vodka!

  • I liked target women more because it made a connection to women and then said "here men, here is what we are talking about" and then the whole viewer group was in on the jokes. This just makes me feel like im not invited to a club.

  • @mironasee Well, she's definitely not a Sarah Haskins, but I don't think bashing her for wearing makeup is the best way to go either. It's just that her jokes aren't really that great.

  • sarah haskins is actually funny :( 

  • Dear angry girl trying to be funny..FAIL...that is all

  • @SlackerSince85 Lucky that gay marriages are now becoming legal then, huh

  • I just got a bud light ad!!! Awesome I love america!!!

  • is this suppose to be funny. sorry forgot to laugh

  • I miss Sarah Haskin - she is not the same!! She wears makeup and looks like she subscribes to everything she is supposedly deconstructing - doesn't seem like an intellectual either - seems more like a talking piece

  • Well beer tastes like shit, so the jokes on them. They just make my decision not to buy it easier because their ads aren't even trying to convince me that is worth buying.

  • I don't think anyone likes women anymore

  • @DC5533 WOW, you're SO GOOD at making vague, generalizing statements and acting like you're super informed!!!!!! Man, everything involving this video is a goddamned disappointment. I'm fucking out of here.
