Audi Bank - the backhanded compliment on Mother's Day!

So on Mother's Day, Audi Bank delivers the most backhanded of compliments. "As a big fat gal you don't seem to sweat much" they seem to say. OK, look at the ad here and tell me. Well you know the saying - behind every great man is a great woman, but it seems that behind every great woman is a damn tribe and she would not make it without them (ergo, she is weak on her own). Just look at the image above "a woman can be ambitious" - this sets the tone on how backhanded the whole ad is. This is pure double standard - no man would be asked about his parents in law and should they approve that he has a career. But according to Audi Bank a woman (a mother!) needs to have ther support. Sigh....
