Dr AL Sharada, director, Population First, reviews ads from last week on the basis of gender sensitivity
What worked:
The ad breaks the norm by providing nearly equal screen time to women investors. This is a rarity within ads of its category. However, the voice of authority continues to be of a man.
Gender Sensitivity Score (GSS): 3.25/5
What did not work:
A humorous and watchable ad that relies heavily on the stereotype of women as gossipmongers.
GSS: 2.5/5
