Creepy slacks ad from 1970

May 13, 2008 9:52am

My husband's a feminist. I think it makes total sense that this discussion would lean towards attitudes towards sexism. Why else would boingboing have chosen to post it? We see enough weird stuff on the net that doesn't get space on this site, but this was weird with a treasure-trove of subtext.

And I hated that Trojan ad. Not only is it offensive to men (protection/contraception should always be shared) but portrays women (again) as sexual gatekeepers.

Anti- genital mutilation ad campaign features blowup love dolls

This campaign reduces the women to sex objects. If I had fgc, I'd be horrified at this image, even if I was consentual. Why not use the real human faces of women/girls who've had this done to them?

They're keeping points on how many prostitutes he goes to (or kills). This is perhaps the most boring and shitty post I've read on here. As a female reader, thanks Boingboing!

Yeah, pretty funny, except for those rhymes about, what was it, sexual assault? HILARIOUS. Can't somebody make a fantastic parody that doesn't involve a lone voiceless woman grinding?

Yay! More products designed like disembodied parts of women! Gee, guys, thank goodness it's the right half!

Fuck a lotta this.

Wow. I didn't know Facebook science would turn out to be so elitist.

Geeky xmas ornaments galore

I made a severed head of John the Baptist on a silver platter (for Salome) ornament. Don't ask why.
