Wow, the Love's BabySoft ad actually made me shudder.
Yeah, I think that's the worst one of the 15.

One of these ads (#13 "A Girl Around The House") I've seen before in a Women's Studies class as an example of misogyny in advertising.
Yeah, that's appalling, but I think the postage meter one is worse. I don't even get what they are trying to sell there. And then there's the coffee one.

Well, that one is pretty awful too. But I still remember an under-age Brooke Shields and the Calvins ad, so that's sadly a bit par for the course.
I should never try to use characters (accidentally) that are part of the quick-edit formatting. Whooops.
I love my EEEgor - VW GTI GLX, black-with-black-leather-interior. Small pointy car for a small pointy person. He goes FAST.
Gas-station attendant puts a mark on my boy, there will be TROUBLE with a capital PAIN.
The Chubbies and Chase & Sanborn are both in my Tasche Advertising books.
And the Love's Baby's Soft is probably from the Pretty Baby era if I had to guess. SERIOUSLY creepy.
Aaaaand, just as I start to get motivated to do something with the day other than sit around the apartment, it's raining again. A sign from a higher power, perhaps?
I remember thinking the Love's Baby Soft at was weird at the time, but I wasn't creeped out like I am now. I don't know that it could run now... though those Steve Madden ads did for the longest.

What was it with the seventies and young girls in sexual situations? It seems like most of the creepiest stuff that I've seen in that vein, in terms of things in mainstream media, are from the seventies.
I'm pretty sure the Lysol ad is actually the worst, because it is about douching with Lysol.
