Ah for the old days


Recommended Posts

Those who know me well, know I love looking back with fondness for a gentler time, a more romantic time, a time for women to be treated with the respect they deserve. I thought a trip down memory lane with some old product ads showing how women were treated in the past....

Yes but what will she be drinking?

I recall the pain suffered by my father when he did this one Christmas morning....

Did she try listerine?

Usually sooner rather than later. Surprised that is the only damage....

I have learned from experience never fry bacon when naked...

Cigarette smoke is dangerous so just settle for blowing in her face eh?

Try this today and I can recommend a nice plastic surgeon to remove the feather duster implant she gave you

For the next one, the answer is usually no, after 8 beers...I think they are looking for something else!

I have three sons. These ads remind me of some of the simple things that I have tried to teach them over the years in an effort to save them some future pain and learn from my mistakes. For instance: If they are out at a restaurant with a lady and he is in a situation to order drinks while she is away from the table, when the server asks if the drink should be diet or regular, the answer is never "diet".

I think this man is saying "I have a boner..." oh wait....

My first thought here - the credit card statement arrived. Certainly grounds to nuclear warfare in my parents' relationship!

What on earth?!?! This was acceptable back then? and she took it with a smile? Jaw dropping disbelief that this was ever acceptable....

I think there are missing photos between 2 and 3? The one where they are in bed, then taking a shower, redressing....

Listerine never did this to me?

Wow Croc, NJMP cancels the weekend track days and you have nothing else to do? :svengo: They are funny though. Just think of the fallout from those ads today. 50 years from now are they going to be laughing at our current ads? Political correctness is out of control.

"You have come a long way baby!"

 

Given the current trend of women being better educated and better employed, maybe in 50 years these ads will be back in vogue, but with men in the subservient role(:?

Heh, here's my contribution. Funny in another way and needs some explaining. P&G sold untold millions of boxes of soap with this photo. The model playing the young mother went on to a very famous career. That's Marilyn Chambers.
