I was very disappointed to see the latest addition to our endless series of billboard elections. Why is the
Lebanese woman always stereotyped to the fashion-victim bimbo? I personally did not identify with the
billboards. I would like to see smarter women represented, who are not judged by the way they dress or the way
they look, but for their ideas. Moreover, the statement accompanying the female-version billboard does not
contain any hint of intelligence in it: she will vote for the color of her lipstick. What a wise choice! This is
very repugnant. And please people don’t get all offended now I don’t have anything against your party it’s just
that I find those ads truly repulsive. Better for all parties to stop advertising themselves already, it seems
like they’re out of ideas...
