30's Ads

Wow! Nothing says 30's stereotypes like a good avertisement. As an advertising major, my jaw hit the floor looking at this. There is no way this would happen in this day and age (not without a large riot/protest). It just shows you how the world worked back then, telling a woman that she is to take care of her home, and that she better have that sink fixed and dinner on the table before her husband comes home. I mean, he works all day, couldn't she atleast keep the house in the same condition (or better) that he left it as? I hope everyone got the sarcasm of that, and I'm glad things have changed.
