I know some will say this is nit picky or me being sensitive, however the stereotype is women are notorious for being difficult to decide on dinner plans. In this commercial it's of course the man who can't make the decision while proclaiming he's easy to please. And of course the woman rolls her eyes at the camera.

It's a subversion of the female being finicky about dinner trope. I dunno maybe I'm tilting at windmills

15 years ago I would’ve said nit picky but now I can’t blame you for picking up that stuff. Modern entertainment has forced it on us
