Here's your coffee, sweetie, I made it special just for you.

[Math Is Hard]

Ah, those husbands of the 1970s. They never missed a chance to ridicule the little woman.

Notice that at the end of the commercial, the husband drinks, but the women don't. What's really in that coffee?

[rootX]

But where is the coffee? :grumpy: I was just looking into my Tims empty coffee cup...

(I couldn't see the video because youtube doesn't work on my IE6 at work :cry:)

Wow, the "Super-creepy vintage ad for Ivory soap" is so....so....well, creepy :bugeye:!

[Moonbear]

I especially like the sweater ad at the bottom of the first page. :rofl: That's actually really funny!

How in the world could a man marry a woman that can't make coffee??!!

Coffee is serious business!! Do you know how bad life is when you're out of coffee??!!

This is what life is like when you have good coffee:

You should be careful not to drink too much, though:

No wonder women put up with so much crap. The men were irresistible in those tight one-pieces.

I think Starbuck's probably keeps modern U.S. society from falling apart. If they ask for a bailout, we might ought to give it to them.

LOL...they actually used the phrase "the ultimate fashion climax"...and then it gets *really* funny....wow, that's great!

[Astronuc]

I make my own coffee.

I also do most of the cooking.

And those old commercials are rather irritating. :grumpy: :rolleyes:

They were great times for some, not so for many others.

That reminds me, I owe my parents an answer about whether I want hundreds (if not thousands) of old slides accumulated over the years.

Those were the good old days. When a family visit with friends meant watching a slide show of their latest vacation. The best part was when they were busy figuring out which rack of slides was supposed to come next and you could make funny shadow figures on the screen with your hands. Learning proper hand positions for making cool shadow figures was kind of essential talent when I was a kid.

I'm not sure why ads in the 60s-70s with half naked women are any more sexist than the ads with half naked women today. Even PETA does it.

This is my favourite sexist ad though...

in the old days, men exploited women. now women are free to exploit themselves.

And looking at her age there, I'm thinking she would have been a little too old to have been a candidate for out pt reduction surgery while still young enough to learn to stand up straight.

[Lacy33]

And I am finding some satisfaction in watching men go through hell in the media eye at the slightest indication that they hit a woman.
When I was a battered woman back in the good "old days", they gave me a tranquilizer for the situation.
Now I keep my PTSD appointments with shrinko, dutifully pick up my tranquilizers, (Resperadol) if any woman needs to know, and I make a LOT of "coffee." :approve:
Ladies, good days are ahead!

And now its often seen as ok to mistreat men. :-/

[Lacy33]

Oh, it's always been "OK" to mistreat men. Water boarding is a particular favorite of some. Bar fights, gang wars and on. Women just seems to get treated badly as a result of the bad treatment men have endured.
An increase of domestic violence in service families which is probably due to stressors endured by soldiers today. Same old same old.
This is suppose to be a funny thread about the degradation of women. But some yappy battered woman is bound to speak up and that's what happens.
I am 100% sure that I am not the only battered person, reading this thread and I'm sorry to be the one to crash it into the sand. But I just wanted to share my hope for the future. And I have it indeed.

[TheStatutoryApe]

Oh, it's always been "OK" to mistreat men.

Watch some of the current sitcoms about couples. You will see a spouse being hit, smacked around, bossed around, made to look and feel stupid or unattractive, all of it accompanied by a laugh track, and that spouse will be male. If the spouse were female it would be serious business, no laugh track, and maybe even some dramatic music to underscore it.

I appreciate your feelings. Women being hit bothers me greatly. Once I nearly got myself beaten to a pulp because I decided to interrupt a vato smacking his girlfriend around and didn't see his friend who was hanging out around the corner.

If you are to be concerned about sexist mistreatment though you need to deal with the issue as a whole because only being concerned about the treatment of one sex is sexist in and of itself.

i do hope you're "store-testing" for the freshest. :eek:

Yeah StatutoryApe,
I have seen some of this man slapping a long time ago and it was a huge grandma type backhanding the adult male. But others I have not seen because our TV is stuck on c-spam (:yuck:)

I hated it when I saw it and would not go for any version of it now days.
I was talking about public figures who get busted for domestic violence and then have to answer to the media for their behavior, if it even gets that far.

Proton Soup,
Nice find in response to the thread direction. If battered people only got a spanking on the behind many of us would still be alive.
On the light side I would be sure to make this fella a yummy coffee starting off with 8 mg of my favorite and another 4 mg when he wakes up. :!!) Honey!

BTW, thank you as this is very therapeutic.

I know this issue of DV is not restricted to women and children.
My last journey through a battered woman's shelter, there was a very tall, well build African American man in there with his kids.
I wonder what he is doing today after so many years. If he did not go back to his abuser, I wonder if he is an advocate for men in a similar situation.
The system might do well to make two shelters so that abusers don't slip through finding the victims. But then what about same sex partners. Oh never mind......
Lets just make tons of "coffee!"
