Woah. This ad could not get more sexist if it tried! I read it, and re read it and still was left blinking.

The copy for this ad is truly breathtaking. It really shows some progress has been made over the past 30 years.

I wish I were more artistic so I could create a gender swapped version of this ad.

No irony with this ad above the Straight Eight Pontiac ad. Innuendo much? lol

Even being the 1960s, I cannot believe they got away with some of that! Hell, even in 1860s women were treated with more respect.
