TV commercials pushing some boundaries

Has anyone noticed that tv commercials are pushing some serious social boundaries lately?
Ikea has a new commercial where a lesbian couple are celebrating their anniversary.
Then there's some mattress company (i forget the name) and they're talking about how their mattresses are perfect for singles, couples or even three if that's your lifestyle.
When these came on in prime time tv hours we just looked at each other with an oh shit look.
Personally, we have absolutely no issues with anything consensual. Once you hit 18 you do you. We might even like to watch or join you.
I just wonder about any backlash these companies may get? A lesbian couple I don't see as TOO controversial anymore. You've still got the older generation who may catch the very end and realize it's lesbians and think something bad about ikea but for the most part I think that one will go in one ear and out the other for most people. The mattress commercial really made me go "WOW". Promoting your product on national tv by using threesomes and polyamory as a selling point? I don't think most of the country is quite ready for that yet but it may definitely get people talking about their product even though I can't remember their name.
Anyone else noticed these?

Case in point ,those little White Hispanics in the Trump commercial.How do you think their lives will end?A shot to the head?A heroin overdose?Where the fuck were their parents.They will never have gainful employment for the rest of their lives.
But the threesome/polyamorous selling point for the mattress did make me stop and wonder what kind of backlash they may get
Mom says, "Oh damn."
It just caught me as odd that a commercial that's pretty much Saturday-morning fare would use the word "damn."
1. It my wife was that uber hot, I wouldn't need no boner pill
2. Are guys in their 30's really taking ED drugs?

Apparently the YouTube censors must be run by someone running the ISIS campaign restricting videos by age that have already shown on tv.
I had not thought about this before. But yes, I agree.
