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.
Wow! That goes way back! Was it Stiller and Meara (Ben's parents). I know they did Blue Nun ads.
Of course, all these women-bashing ads have a counterpart in today's men-bashing ads directed at women.
And a selection of those ads alone gives a skewed view of the state of advertising at any given time.
But it's strange how things have changed.
I saw the "If your husband ever finds out you're not "store-testing" for fresher coffee" ad with the woman being spanked and didn't think it was her husband punishing her.
I assumed she was having some kinky relationship on the side when she said she was going shopping.
