The Evolution of Female Advertising
• After decades of pitching products to women in fantasies where every bathroom sparkles and every detergent cleans whiter than white, American companies are beginning to do an advertising about-face.
• Instead of scrubbing kitchen floors on their hands and knees, women in today's print and television ads hold full-time jobs, choose day-care and, sometimes, take care of their families without any visible support from a man.
• In addition over the past few decades women have moved from:
Homemaker Sex Object Professional
