Sexist Vintage Ad: Every Girl Should Be Married

History textbooks often skip what life was like for the everyday, average person in the past. One way to really step inside of history it to take a look at vintage advertisements. And because we all need a little humor in our life, I present…drumroll…Throwback Thursdays. Enjoy.  Or at least roll your eyes in scorn.
This is great! An exciting advertisement about getting a glamorous job. Independent women have arrived. The 1950’s are past: women (well, single women) can get jobs. Yay!
But wait, the advertisement makes it clear this is really just a great way to meet a husband! After all, “Every Girl should be married.” I’m assuming the sad, almost crying blonde in the bottom corner is at home unhappy because she doesn’t have a husband yet?

Please check out “Sally Edelstein Collage” for a bunch more media images. She’s explained them, and amassed a great collection.

Enjoy. And if you want a few more laughs, visit the “Vintage Ads“and “Insane Vintage Recipes” pages.
