The outrageously politically incorrect adverts from the time equality forgot

Outrageously funny. Which is why the NOW NAGs don't like male-female pairings. It always ends up with the man in the lead.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

[Obadiah]

I don’t get it.

[firebrand]

They forgot the one where the woman can’t pronounce “Martini & Rossi Asti Spumanti.” That way the man gets to say it over and over till you’re ready to throw the radio.

[GATOR NAVY]

So now we’re at the other extreme. If there’s an idiot in a ad or commercial that idiot will almost always be a white male.

[goldstategop]

Exactly. Today no one would portray as a woman as demure and submissive to a man in life.

Yes an ad or a man would never say this about a women today...

But ad’s and woman would and do say this about a men today all day long...

They call it sexual "equality"

[wideawake]

Of course, in most of today's TV advertisements we see the following scenario:

Usually a white man, but sometimes a white woman, who is too stupid and classless to solve a problem - and their dilemma is usually solved by a black woman or sometimes a black man who is far more intelligent and/or stylish than the white schnook in question.

My wife cracks up whenever I see one of these advertisements come on, because I inevitably say: "Aaarghh! I can't stand these stupid white people! Where can I buy this product?"

Occasionally when listening to classic rock on the car radio I realize that some songs couldn't be released without a lot of protest today due to lyrics about violence against women (The Beatles' Run For Your life, for starters).

Saw a Visa debit card ad the other day. You know the one, everyone happy in line as they make purchases until some dolt uses cash and crashes the well-oiled machine. As I was watching one of these I’d never seen before I saw young women and blacks making their purchases. I immediately thought to myself, “Okay which white guy is going to be the dolt who uses cash?” Sure enough, two seconds later the white guy is the only dolt in the vast crowd who crashes the system by using cash. I just knew it would NEVER be a black guy or a woman who would be used.

LOL

Forget all the Cigarillo ads with the hot babe puffing the product.

Or "Norwegian Wood" - in which a married John Lennon sings about trying to get a one-night stand going with a groupie, gets rebuffed, and takes revenge by committing arson in her apartment.

And, of course, there's the Rolling Stones with "Under My Thumb" and "Stupid Girl" for starters.

[subterfuge]

I’ve heard that a lot and I’ve been watching the commercials. They lambaste black males almost as much.

[HanneyBean]

Bump

[Spok]

I tried treating the women in my office as equals and ended up in sensitivity training.

[MrB]

You obviously don’t get it - you’re not supposed to treat them like you would everyone else,

you’re supposed to ACT like they do, but always recognize that you’re inferior.

[subterfuge]

I just knew it would NEVER be a black guy or a woman who would be used.

They do it to black males too. When there is a black family in the commercial, there has to be a dupe, and it ain't gonna' be the kids or the woman. I see it all the time.

[Michael A. Velli]

A demure and submissive woman is just no fun at all, pal. I like my women with a little spunk.

[Captainpaintball]

Great ads!

[Spok]

“you’re supposed to ACT like they do, but always recognize that you’re inferior.”

That’s what they said in sensitivity training!!
