Beer In Ads #2089: She Married Two Men

November 9, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Budweiser, from 1956. In this ad, with the headline “She Found She Married Two Men,” is an amazingly sexist ad. The text continues with “all women do,” apparently something about an “Inner Man” and planning — a lot of planning — to make meals to make him contended. Here’s the “fact” they conclude with. “Budweiser has delighted more husbands than any other brew ever known.” Wow.
