Shocking Vintage Advertisments unacceptable now [#permalink] New post 24 Jul 2011, 06:14
Guys and Gals, the post below might not be very palatable to everyone because it displays the strong overtones of gender and ethnic bias of past. Apologies in advance in case you find this distasteful/offensive; although I think we can learn a few facts about how the attitudes and outlook of people and society have evolved over a period of time.

Disclaimer - Please do not trouble yourself by watching the contents if you’re put off by stuff that is blatantly biased on any basis as gender, race etc.

absolutely shocking, but interesting to see how the world has changed for the better in a quick overlook at past advertisements
