Please release me, let me go!

When it comes to women and cleaning products, Sarah Haskins hits the nail on the head illuminating the ways in which marketers attempt to "create a romance" between women and these products in order to promote them.  I give you this fantastic video presented on Jezebel as Exhibit A.  

So when my dear friend Leslie blogged today about the virtues of Reynolds Wrap Release Non-Stick Foil, I couldn't help thinking that this was yet another product named and marketed to women, hinting at a release they might not encounter elsewhere, if you get my drift.  And I'm sure you do.

I mean, come on: the italics, the arrows?  It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what kind of release those rockets are suggesting.

Or is it just me?  Still twelve?  Sorry . . .
