Vintage Sexism circa 1990s: Cutting out the dirty lady parts


A reader alerted us to this old Bell ad (an internet provider) saying, “You’ll do anything to protect your kids from inappropriate content. So will we.”
What’s inappropriate is a picture of a woman with her breasts and vagina cut out of what’s obviously some sort of school textbook on human anatomy. I also wasn’t aware that ovaries are dirty too. (You’ll see they’re cut out as well.) Because we all know what exposing your children to ovaries will lead to…before you know it, they’ll be ovarydosing!
(I know I know, I tried.)
