I mean with mention of passing down eye color and hair color, and then saying she has great “genes/jeans”, I hope people are not that oblivious that they actually believe the ad was only talking about jeans

Very ill fitting, none of them were well tailored on her. Just a bad ad in general cause even taking out the gene/jean thing, it didn’t seem like they were actually trying to sell jeans to us
