Sexist vintage ads
These vintage ads are mostly selling products to/for women who are emitting foul odors from various body parts, but there are some for women who aren't up to snuff in the kitchen, and a few more generally sexist ads thrown in:
Most of the ads about personal hygiene were taken from movie magazines, which had a female demographic. The men's magazines are concerned with infectious dandruff, BO, facial bustles, and bad breath.
"I always carry some in my purse"!
ReplyDeleteI love Eastern's tagline: "We want everyone to fly." Except the 18 girls shown here.
ReplyDeleteThey can fly. They just have to buy a ticket.
ReplyDeleteDude, a moldy basement is never a good thing.
ReplyDeleteHarsh toilet paper may result in child abuse. Good to know.
ReplyDeleteThey were harsh about male hygiene, too--bad breath, dandruff, B.O., the works. Equal-opportunity insult.
ReplyDeleteThe first one's a fake.
