"I'll take Sexist Categories for Eight."

[Joe Hass]

Jeopardy had a category the other night called "What Women Want", with the correct responses being vacuum, crossword puzzle, Levi's (the clue featured the line "A pair of jeans that fit"), pilates, and Sleepytime Tea. Suffice to say, this did not go over well on The Tubes.

The Club picked it off Mashable (link), and I'm with a recent commenter there: "As well as being sexist, they all reek of paid product placement."

Yeah, it was six questions not that different from the Alleve ad during the break before Final.

Five--and I feel comfortable calling them "clues" (as has become the official description for "Jeopardy!" material--with what the contestant says called a "response") rather than "answers."
