Does Mr. Clean perpetuate stereotypes?

After posting the previous video, I read this article which says that Dolce and Cabana are amongst the targets of a new European Parliament vote to "scold" advertisers for sexual stereotyping.

According to the article...

The concern, according to the committee report, is that stereotypes in advertising can “straitjacket women, men, girls and boys by restricting individuals to predetermined and artificial roles that are often degrading, humiliating and dumbed-down for both sexes.”
