I knew they weren't growing only harmless tobacco.

I vividly remember a "Car and hot Blonde Girl"-type ad from the 1980s where the girl, leaning against the red car, wore a t-shirt that declared: "I'LL GIVE YOU MOST VALUE FOR MONEY!" (no, I'm not kidding!) 😄

In the late 60’s we still used the word ‘gay’ to mean happy and cheerful.

@IngenerateIngenue

It still does mean ‘happy’ ‘jolly’ but it’s also used to described someone who is attracted to the same sex. In the UK in the 90’s and 2000’s ‘gay’ was also a term used by mainly teens and meant something was ‘not fun’ or was ‘silly’. 😄

To be offended is subjective. I wasn’t offended by them because they are historic however, if this type of blatant sexism existed in today’s advertising the business would go broke.

These vintage ads are pretty offensive!

What men don't like about women, 2000s.

I was a girl child in the late 50s & early 60s when many of these first appeared and were NOT opposed by the culture of the time. Still crawling from the wreckage. A full time dose of this sh**t did a number on my head, not funny at all! The young men of my generation were poisoned too, which explains the rate at which we got divorced. Women finally got smart, men didn't keep up.

There's nothing wrong with any of these ad's. There's much wrong with people today at too many levels to name.
