It was considered sexist for a boss to have sex with his secretary. Until Bill Clinton had sex with his college intern and then the Feminazis came out to defend it and attacked women who stepped forward with allegations of rape, sexual harassment, intimidation (slashed tires, dead animals, police powertrips).
Now all of the advertising has been queered up.
Doubtful. This is just more left wing re-writing of history.

My Lord, this stuff is awful. I always thought the feminists were crazy and that the women of the 1950s didn’t really suffer any significant discrimination, but maybe I was wrong.
Where is that ad with the men in the foreground on the couch, watching TV and drinking beer (I think) while wifey is in the background washing dishes?
it would be nice to have a 1950s girl around the house. imagine living in a time of intact families, largely. not perfect families, but intact families. and almost all black families intact.
I remember analyzing ads, TV and newspaper, in college. It was fun and educational. Of course it is easy to see the folly of advertisements that are 50 years old, just as when simpletons boo the screen of movie theaters showing old flicks whenever such themes as we see them here appear, all to demonstrate to themselves and to one another how enlightened and superior human beings they all are, which for me makes for another reason to avoid movie theaters. But it’s not so easy to analyze today’s ads, which in 50 years will look as ridiculous as those posted above look to us today, you can bet.
How about the Svedka robot sex doll? Seen on the Jon Stewart show...not much more sexist than that, and it’s yesterday’s ad.
