\"blow<\/a><\/p>\n

This image comes from The Male Mystique<\/i><\/a>, this awesome book Sarah<\/a> brought me when she came to visit last weekend. It’s chock full (whoops, almost typed “cock full,” hyuk) of these cheesy-ass ads from the ’60s and ’70s that could have served, as Sarah observed, as a general character composite for Ron Burgundy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(Parenthetically, this seems to me to be a perfect illustration of the technique used by Mystery, “The Pick-Up Artist”: Spew some harmful bullshit in the face of a woman and expect her to love it and fawn over you for doing so.)<\/p>\n

I want to take this book home to my parents and ask them if they recall some of these ads. It’s hard for me to imagine a world in which some of them would have ever been OK. Like this one:<\/p>\n

\"statutory<\/a><\/p>\n

Oh, the offensiveness goes way beyond the bad design and the terrible rape pun. Shudder.<\/p>\n
