Why not funny? but rather classified as Offensive unlike the previous post....
They are blunt and rude and Yes ..one can laugh at them too...
but we need to see beyond just the ad. Even after all the liberalization, so called freedom that the women enjoy.. we haven't freed them from these stereotypes.
We still don't have a gender free world, that might be a Utopian thought but isn't that the way things should be! The ads that follow are offensive as they all are of the spirit as below:
World Might Have Advanced Technologically, But In Some Aspects we have no development
Like the note in the ad says
"125 years of evolution mechanically, yet 0 years of evolution socially"
What could be more apt!
The ads that follow don't have any new theme - the same we see everyday on TV - and strangely don't even find offensive... Isn't this the way the world should be? Whats wrong with emphasizing beauty for women? A women with no beauty truly has no future... A woman has to be thin to be married well... blah blah blah...
1. Most men ask "Is she pretty?" NOT "Is she clever?"
I do not agree to this... it's not most men... it's all men...
From mythic times of Paris judging the goddesses themselves for the golden apple to today - 2013 men only ask this. It is sad... but then who cares! It's good that a woman today if she wants can let herself not pay attention to this - and if tries can live a sane life. Not easy... but a sane life. However, going by the ads below - don't think it was easy for our earlier gen.
Reminded of all the beauty ads today... if not all.. most of them.. esp. Ponds! Important to be beautiful so that you continue pleasing the man...what about being beautiful for yourself, or inner beauty? Did I hear "inner beauty", "beauty for self"? What's that!!!
2. Be Thankful... We No Longer Beat You
It's rare that a woman can have something to say that interests a man... Chances that her talks bore the man are quite high... there is no help as one can not make a woman think intelligently but help can be given for her cooking... so, there is hope... as there is help given to a woman to cook better - so that she can be thankful that her man doesn't yawn on the table anymore!
3. Tell Her It's A Man's World... and Make Her So Happy It Is
Who ever in 1960's designed this ad had to be mad
4. Keep In Shape!
Do the house hold work, keep the house looking good, keep your weight down - to be in with modern figure - have cigs as they will help you curb temptations - look cute, be the apple of your husbands eye.

5. Walk All Over Women... It's cool!
This one goes to the extend that the woman will let a man walk all over her.. when he is wearing his oh so sexy slacks... The image is offensive and not funny for sure.
Depressing if one thinks about it.
One more image to go .. which I am again not adding to the list of top 5 Offensive Ads. Its offensive but you can laugh at it heartily and joke about it - in present times - Today!
