25 years since this advert first aired, we now live in a different society. It was quite the advert when growing up, but how does it sit in our modern world?
To any one who isn't aware, it was a hugely popular advert in the 90s where at 11.30 the window cleaner who was shirtless would drink a diet coke and all the women in the office would oogle him
Lmao, I totally forgot about that ad. Wouldn’t fly in 2019, that’s for sure. I guess I’m all for not oversexualizing everyone, but at the same time, I feel it’s kind of foolish and disingenuous to pretend we don’t all enjoy looking at attractive people, whether you’re a man or a woman. Buff dudes and bikini-clad women were staples of commercials back in the day, and honestly, I don’t see much harm in that.
One thing I've kinda noticed... men and women got along a lot better when 'sexism' was kinda accepted... not like bosses fucking their secretaries to keep their jobs mind you, but like normal sexual interaction.
Same thing with the races. We got along better when white people could make jokes about black people and vice versa.

I’ve never seen it, but it doesn’t sound that sexist to me.
