So if a husband gifts his wife with a Peloton spin bike as a gift then he expects nothing in return. Or else it wasn't a GIFT!
So to all those ranting and crying about Peloton not being politically correct, please quit calling the spin bike in the ad a GIFT. I mean if you're all so concerned about being Correct and all.......
You can't call it a gift and Sexist in the same breath and be correct on both accounts.
Wow, that's a really stupid gotcha. By that logic, a couple can't, by definition, give each other gifts on a holiday because they're expecting their spouse to do likewise.
It's almost like language and behavior have subtler implications than you're capable of grasping.
