I am not one to be easily offended, but I heard a radio advert for a local estate agent yesterday that just didn't sit well with me.
I won't repeat it in full, but the gist is the advert is a discussion between a man and his pregnant wife about moving house and using this agent. The point of the advert is that the agent is so good and quick that they will be in their new home before the baby arrives. The man thanks the agent for being so great. All fairly standard and pretty dull.
The advert ends with usual voiceover giving the name of the agency. Then, as the closer, the man in the couple says, deadpan, "...and I'd like to thank my wife for her surprise pregnancy that made this move necessary."
My immediate thought was "so it's nothing to do with you then?". I appreciate it was an attempt at humour but AIBU to find it a little sexist?

AIBU?
To find this estate agent's advert a little off?
