One of the following Superbowl ads had radical women’s groups — such a NOW (the National Organization for Women) and Emily’s List — outraged.

Guess which ad? (And we’re not even including the “too hot for TV” GoDaddy ads that year in, year out, feature sexual inuendo and a woman stripping off her clothes at the end of every commercial.) Which one most upset some of the leading liberal feminist groups and had them sending out press releases like confetti?

Did feminists demand that CBS ban this ad from Dodge, ‘A Man’s Last Stand, in which a hen-pecked man promises, “I will say yes when you want me to say yes… I’ll carry your lip balm…”

Or this one from Flo TV, in which “His girlfriend has removed his spine…. Come on, Jason, change out of that skirt.”

Or this Bud Light ad about a women’s Book Club, in which a man asks a woman, “I’d like to hear you read some words.” Later, after the book club meeting the man is asked if he liked “Little Women,” and he answers, “I’m not too picky.”

Or this one  from The Backup Plan, in which pregnant women are depicted in a highly unflattering way.

Or this one from Focus on The Family, in which quarterback Tim Tebow’s mother Pam says, “I call him my miracle baby. He almost didn’t make it into this world. I remember so many times when I almost lost him. It was so hard. Well he’s all grown up now, and I still worry about his health. Everybody treats him like he’s different, but to me, he’s just my baby. He’s my Timmy, and I love him.” And Tim answers, “Thanks mom. Love you too.”

That’s right! The ad that most outraged “progressive” pro-choice feminists groups such as NOW and Emily’s List, the only ad that they demanded that CBS not broadcast, was the one from Focus on the Family, a religious organization that is supportive of women who are in favor of choice — the choice not to abort a difficult pregnancy, even though abortion was not mentioned in the ad whatsoever. Nothing can be worse than a benign message from traditional Christians. The defamation of women as castrating all-busting rhinos — in at least a half-dozen Superbowl ads — did not elicit any negative publicity or protest from the professional feminists. Perhaps that is how they are pleased to see themselves. The only ad that outraged them to the point of wanting a blacklist was the one with Pam and Tim Tebow, the one about the love of a mom for her child, and his love for her.

My “Progressive” feminist friends can surely explain– I can’t — why an ad about the experience of a good-spirited mother, an ad that was gentle and subtle, had feminists from NOW and Emily’s List storming CBS, but the most misogynistic, truly obnoxious ads were given a pass. Strange.

The “last laugh” was on the single-issue pro-abort extremists. (This is not about a sane discussion of why abortion should be legal but the insane insistence that anyone who might encourage a pregnant woman to keep her baby, as did Pam Tebow, be blacklisted.)

If you want to know why many traditional and religious Americans think professional feminists are elitist, disconnected, and have less to say than Sarah Palin; why more women are members of Hadassah, and church and synagogue sisterhoods, than are members of NOW or Emily’s List; why millions of American independents are turning away from politicians who coddle NOW, and are turning away from journalists who take radical feminist protests more seriously than they do Evangelical women and Orthodox women who gently protest on behalf of greater decency and modesty in American culture — if you want to know why, something as simple as the ads of Superbowl Sunday are a good place to start.
