Yes, you are just the messenger. Then again, you are the messenger of a totally demeaning, degrading, biased, and insulting video.

I don't know... a whopping 30 posts in over a year, and this is his contribution.

I think there has been a ridiculous level of over reaction to this. It is a spoof public information film from a BBC Comedy programme called the 'Fast Show' (I think that's the show anyway). In the 40's and 50's the genuine articles were shown in British cinemas to educate the masses.
The spoof version is called 'satire' and seems to be lost on many. If you actually watch the entire thing you will see that the only person speaking sense is the woman. If anything it is intended as a put down to the men. Just try looking beyond the obvious occasionally and you may be surprised by what you find!

Ummmm - some of you actually thought this video was serious???

This is an obvious lampooning of early- to mid-1900's male chauvinism.

He posts by other names here and elsewhere.
His M.O. is demeaning (or trying to demean others) always women. Review the posts.
Not worth our attention or reaction.

Oh, all right. With Keith's explanation, I did look at it and he's right. It's funny and clearly meant ironically, as a parody of those 1950s public-service shorts. It would have been nice if Gary had given it a little bit of context, though.

I had a good laugh watching it. Having studied Political Science at university, I love little kittens.

I just saw the whole movie and it is just a very old fashioned joke and sounds like it was made in England. It didn't insult me at all and the audience was laughing just like they laugh here when they listen to other stupid or funny jokes. Yes, I love little kittens too.
