2 reasons.
1 – they know more women will buy it to “prove them wrong”
2 – i think its referring to how chunky and brick-ish they are

We got Yorkies in Guangzhou’s import shops. :-q Yum.
Wonder how much in sales that advert wrangled out of the female market with the “forbidden fruit” angle?
this is just like …
this is just like the Trix commercial.

limies are all girls so they’re adverting in the wrong country
fuck me, its a …
me, its a humourous tv ad fer christ sake, get a life.
i still dont get …
i still dont get why its not for girls….lol i just bought one and am eating it now….and was curious why its not for girls.
I agree. Theres …
I agree. Theres hundreds of as that come and go that’re sexist against males. there’s so much sexism against males thanks to the succession of ‘feminism’ that men are quite used to it. I find it sad but funny that when an ad finally comes out that’s sexist against females, women blow up a HUGE fuss. Females: they love anything FEMALE only. Resent, hate and disdain anything MALE only (cos it’s ‘not fair’)
heres a good one for you. men have longer legs therfor walk faster. how sexist. go sue god.
LOL thats pretty …
LOL thats pretty funny actually! i like it
I don’t regard this …
I don’t regard this as sexist. As many have said, it’s a joke, and a funny one at that.
Besides, us women can get over little joshes like this; it’s not like they’re not sexist right back at men most times.
Get a sense of …
Get a sense of humor. Out of all the fronts on which to battle sexism, this is about the worst one you could pick. It’s clearly just a joke. If it bothers you so much go start a candy company marketed towards androgynous people; your ad campaign can be a bunch of people walking into the store and the clerk only sells it to them if he can’t tell which gender they are.
I think that it …
I think that it encourages stereotyped gender roles and reinforces normality as heterosexual…
Meh, I’m a girl, my …
Meh, I’m a girl, my friends and I had been eating Yorkie for years and when this ad came out none of us were offended, we thought it was funny. And they did the limited edition pink one for girls, which proves that girls can handle a Yorkie bar too
Having lived in USA …
Having lived in USA (MI) a while, I can tell ya that Walmart have a British aisle – try there (that’s where I got mine while I was in USA)
it’s amazing how so …
it’s amazing how so many will claim this advert to be sexist, yet quite eagerly cackle at the current adverts portraying men as buffoons or worse, where they’re attacked sexually for ‘fun’. Of course, that’s not sexist, is it? ;o)
What i mean is it’s …
What i mean is it’s just for jokes. It means that girls can pull off anything boys can.
LOL. This isn’t …
LOL. This isn’t THAT sexist as most people say though.
I never ate another …
I never ate another yorkie after this campaign. But it does make me wonder about other slogans you could have.
“Walls sausages, they’re not for jews” funny? I doubt it.

Ive heard this was banned in Norway- must be a very strong PC brigade there- can any Norwegian people tell me if thats true?

scandalous! the most sexist advertising ever!!! i read about it, but i didn’t think it could effectively exist!!! wordless!!!
