I'd not call a
"sexist" marketing scheme for _toys_ demeaning, I'd call it stupid -
what do kids really know or care about sexism? Are you sure it was
"sexist?"

FWIW, the product was Hasbro's "Rose Petal Cottage". The TV ad that set me
off was within typical norms of little girls playing with dolls & doll
houses; but the voiceover of "inspiring your imagination" while showing a
little girl putting landry into a washing machine was way past acceptable
for me.
