The PC police are out of control these days. It seems freedom of speech is under attack over the slightest things. But these ads are not that. Let's just say they more than push the envelope! Here are my top picks for ads from over the years that would never fly today and may just leave you with your jaw on the floor in disbelief.

I was watching an old coke commercial from the 50s the other day with a friend and he pointed out the sexism. The girl sucked it up with a straw and the guy lapped it out of the glass. It was so blatant! I would have never saw it!
Dang! That’s the one I own. Thx!
Saw nothing wrong with the first 2. Didn’t look at the rest.
They can also use tears to get their way in the workplace, where a man who cries is shunned and sidetracked. White Woman’s Tears.

Oh, I get it. “Projection equipment”. The world’s finest.
I did a job at a mine on the island of Irian Jaya. They would use locals for some of the jobs.
We were working off the actual mine site, and right at the end of the gravel road it turned into a trail that headed over the rocky mountains. With a pile of hard hats, boots and rain gear. Some clothing mixed in.
When the locals would quit and head back home they dumped their white man’s gear. Mine rules on-site, but they preferred walking the two day journey back home barefoot over the rocks and snow.
I asked one of our local helpers about it. The interpreter said they can’t stand wearing boots.
