(19,339 posts)Although I don't want anyone yelling anything at me as I walk down the street, really, whether it's respectful or not.
ETA: Also, I object to the message that construction workers' default is misogynistic and disrespectful, and that they "aren't themselves" when hungry.

When officers arrived they found that construction workers whod been at the new Henry Leavenworth Elementary School had surrounded the suspect and were holding him.
Goff allegedly attacked the victim as she jogged on the sidewalk on the east side of 20th street, according to Kitchens.
This was an apparent attempted sexual assault, Kitchens said."
You go, construction workers.

(10,287 posts)but it doesn't lose its message because of it
I feel like if a message resonates as this one obviously does the message is true
so yeah its a commercial but the message its sending has less to do with snickers than society

(110,159 posts)personally, i think it means a hell of a lot. the thing. when it is the negative, we say it does not effect us. and when it is this. a clear message, we know it matters.
if it does with this, it does when we continually pump the negative.
yes swamp.. that hug, and joy still just as strong. it resonates.

But great up to that point.
