I think the commercial is similar to another T-mobile ad where the clueless guy jumps into a Gorilla cage to retrieve his mobile.
Like that commercial, it’s understood the hapless guy gets attacked, viciously, because the women are just wildibeasts without conscience.
Let’s look at it more closely: The kid is trying to understand how to approach women. He asks other nerds for advice who give him some lurid, but harmless, pick-up lines. He tries them and the women viciously attack him apparently for being out of their league.
Makes a tiger appear merciful by comparison.
Perhaps the women could have laughed him off. Foreign women often do just that: A clueless man makes an approach and they find it amusing and even flattering. They maybe even give him tips, especially if it’s a kid, on how they want to be treated.
This ties into numerous newspaper articles from young women complaining that men aren’t chivalrous anymore and aren’t being “taught” how to behave towards women. But then again, whose teaching them and how? What lesson did this young man learn about women? Probably to approach them when _they’re_ vulnerable, not him.
Consequently, such women might ultimately wind up teaching men how to be aggressive and defensive as they are.

Those girls seem to be exhibiting ape-like behavior. Genetics or environment?
