Vintage Sexism: Creepy Vintage Ads

Via Retro Comedy :

While it's no shock to find outdated gender roles, misogyny, etc., in this collection called "The 15 Creepiest Vintage Ads of All Time ," I really was surprised at how much these ads were able to surprise me.

Besides this "woman as fur rug" to sell men's pants, you'll find a wife getting spanked for lazy coffee shopping, unhappy marriage blamed on the woman's lack of practicing "female hygiene" with Lysol, and so much more. Virgin fetishes, murder- we've got it all. It's like a buffet of creepy. Seriously.

Wow... "Innocence is sexier than you think"

If that isn't a pedophile's dream ad I don't know what is...
