It's interesting how a simple Cheerios commercial can get Americans worked up.

This was a popular commercial a couple of years ago.
It stars a white boy.....but you know what they are implying.

Exactly what you said, this commercial was about how women stereotypically love chocolate. It doesn't relate to black men at all.

IDK, I can see a slight double entendre if one wanted to interpret it as such.

While the opposite, just riding on the cusp of the Cheerios commercial (is why I post this - ok, and because the lil' kiddie is just so darn' cute!! :smt050) ..... but I didn't see any flack for this one (thankfully), I guess because the father is not in the Ad?

Hmmmm....I don't know. Dad could be White, light skinned Black, Hispanic or even Asian because although mom is Black (or biracial possibly?) she has a light skin tone as well. Just my opinion however.

The child is def a mixed child, and I think the father was deliberately left ambiguous, however I do feel the makers were specifically highlighting a bi-racial child to rep their product. They probably feel the potential clientele gravitating toward their particular product would most likely be IR, or blended, as well as noting the ever-changing face of society in general... lots of lovely mixing. I loved it!

Oh definitely a child of mixed parentage and definitely the father was left as ambiguous because as you say the ever changing face of society with the various IR blendings, it's no longer so easy to look at many biracial children and tell what their parents racial make up is, especially if the parents themselves are both products of an interracial relationship.
I had seen a Sprite commercial. It showed the bare back of a white woman falling to her knees before a bare chested black man. It looks like she is giving the black man a blowjob. And the black man has his climax and and a huge spray of Sprite covers the woman's face. The commercial was in German. They couple spoke German. Has anyone seen that commercial?

Cute. But, I have seen diaper and Ivory Snow commercials that showed a baby's backside. Why they pixellated everything is beyond me. But, it is a cute commercial.

Yes, it has been posted here. In the Locker Room and the Funny Joke thread.
Not sure if it is a 'positive' representation per-se, but TBF, the Europeans do tend to be much more edgier (cheekier) and (push-the-envelope) sexual in their commercials, while in the U.S, ours are more 'wholesome' or comedic.
