Pics Week continued: More Sexist Ads from Past Years

I have previously posted sexist and racist ads from bygone years, here are some more sexist ones . . . 

Who is the target audience for buying office copiers when it is promoted by a woman wearing nothing below her waist and holding a football. 

-------oOo------- 

And who is the target audience for this ad? Does my bum look big? The ad says that this bread “takes pounds off where they show most.” 

-------oOo------- 

I’ve always maintained that Iced Vo Vo’s are superior to Tim Tams, even if they don’t satisfy women. 

-------oOo------- 

Funny, I always thought that when Mick Jagger sang about "mother’s little helper" (read ad above) he was singing about Valium and such like. Now I know that she was running to the shelf to get some Kentucky Fried. 

-------oOo------- 

I wonder if marriage counsellors know about this. 

-------oOo------- 

 . . .and this. 

-------oOo------- 

Now I know what to get my wife for Christmas. Apparently women long for this for years. 

-------oOo------- 

Not using Odo-Ro-No = dumb. The ad is dumb and was dumb even back when it was first published. 

-------oOo------- 

Yes! 

-------oOo------- 


Has anyone else noticed the sexualised poses of the woman’s legs and her sitting, and that of the man with his hands in pockets pointing to his genitalia? Or is it just my mind?

-------oOo------- 

Sublety is not a strongpoint in this ad. 

-------oOo------- 

Nor in this one. 

-------oOo------- 

More of the “A woman’s place is in the kitchen” thinking. 

-------oOo------- 

From an ad for a construction company. 0 out of 10. 

-------oOo------- 

Another ad from American Apparel, which deliberately creates sexist ads to promote controversy and exposure.

-------oOo------- 

Q: Where does a woman belong? 
A: “We all know a woman’s place is in the home, cooking her man a delicious meal.” At least the early 1940’s thought so.
