It's awful, isn't it? I mean, geez, can't a woman do something nice for a man without bowing before him and being shown "it's a man's world?" I guess they thought us wimmen needed a clue.
It's so obvious these ads were made by men who were terrified women would some day rise up and stop taking their shit. They way they pushed the "Men are superior! You must teach your wife this! Make her obey!" crap seems fear-driven, not to mention just plain sad.
I feel like showing these ads to my ignorant grandmother, who is convinced the world was perfect when she was young, and is fucked up beyond belief now*. She will never admit to anything being better now than it was when she was my age. Well, grandma, at least I don't have to bow before my husband while serving him breakfast in bed!
*I actually agree the world is fucked up now, but I also believe it was fucked up back then too, just in different ways.
MissTia: You hit the nail on the "head" so to speak! THATS exactly what this ad says to me!! And nothing else. Not making me want to buy the asshole another tie, unless it's to choke him with! Wow, this is so terrible. Hot coffee on his junk coming right up! rox
I'd better stop posting these things, someone might think I'm one of them wimmen's libbers.

And I kept wondering why the dude wore a dress shirt and tie to bed. I don't wonder why he's in a single bed. Nope.
That's one dumb ad. Nothing wrong with women's lib. I love guys who love strong women, they are secure with their own sense of self.
Oh mighty powerful husband who makes all the $$$$$$$$. Here is your coffee in bed. I hope you enjoy.
Glad times have changed some-what. Know a days that add would have some woman in bed wearing a tie and a smile. With the man surveing her breakfast.
he's in that 'give me a blowjob' pose....she should pour that coffee on his head....either head will do....
LOL mean. That's why I like you.

Found in Mom's Attic?
I love that site and I love old advertising.
I love that site too.
As for the pic; she put Ex-Lax in his coffee.
I thought it was an ad for ties. And therefore makes no sense at all. Breakfast in bed, right. Never would happen in my house.
