The image of a perfect woman in the 1950s is familiar to all of us – a diligent wife, slaving around the house all day, preparing delicious meals for her hardworking husband, taking care of the children, and all that with a smile, of course. This image was reflected a lot in the ads of that era too. Inspired by them, photographer and video editor from Beirut, Lebanon, Eli Rezkallah created a series called “In A Parallel Universe” where he switched up the gender roles portrayed in those ads to reveal the absurdity of such stereotypes with humor.
“Last Thanksgiving, I overheard my uncles talk about how women are better off cooking, taking care of the kitchen, and fulfilling “their womanly duties,” Rezkallah writes on his website. “Although I know that not all men are like my uncles and think that way, I was surprised to learn that some still do, so I went on to imagine a parallel universe, where roles are inverted and men are given a taste of their own sexist poison.”
Scroll down to see these funny recreations of old-school ads for yourself!

Nah if she's bowing her head he should have done the same. otherwise it's not a real reversal because bowing your head is considered a sign of submission and that is the center focus of the first one a serving a man and servants aren't supposed to raise their head or make eye contact unless told to.

The saddest part is that advertisement for woman-oriented goods haven't really changed all that much. In the thisties it was "douse your ladyparts in Lysol or HE WILL LEAVE YOU YOU SMELLY CREATURE". Now it's much subtler, but the underlying message "get this product or no man ever will find you attractive" is still predominant. Just flip open any ladies' magazine and see for yourself.
None 7 years ago
Not only Lysol was seen as a cleaning agent for those parts, it was also a contraceptive in a time when those were seen as a bad thing, so those ads were basically saying "if you get pregnant and he's not into it, it's YOUR fault because you didn't use this harsh chemical to kill all of his seeds inside you".

Just remember that when Conservatives harken to the 'Good old days' and how happy they were, just remember this is what they are harkening to. Art reflects life. This is actually what life was like for women. They often got through it by drinking, smoking and scarfing down lots and lots of pills. Surely the men were happy but not the women and that is why the Women's Movement happened. It would have never happened if women were contented and fulfilled being treated like that.

Not many men can earn the amount of money it would take to be able to cover the costs of living and raising a family comfortably so women also have to try work.

They are not really offensive because they simply don't work as commentary on the gender or human conditions. The reason that such ads could be made in the past is because they reflected a reality, even if it was extreme. To simply reverse the roles fails due to the same logic. Women do occupy nor have they replaced men in the hierarchy. Men do not do house work, are not primary care givers, (with exception), do not stay home cooking etc...nor are they physically weaker and or concerned with traditionally female themes. So the whole thing is a no go.

Why did the male in the new copy ads have to be so effeminate? I would have made more of a point had the man been a typical masculine man. Also, that was just the way it was in those days. No one was offended as it just was. Most women wanted to be in the home and enjoyed their roles back then. The funny part was, men and women worked equally back then, he put in long hours and did the heavy lifting, she nurtured her children and made the home a place of health and well being for the family. Also, finances were shared and both had a goal of providing for the home and family. It wasn't all bad.

If there are guys out there who are offended by this in anyway, let me give some info. Feminists have pussified you! There is nothing particularly clever about this because the purported modern male stereotypes are simply not true while many of the 50s female ones still are. The ability to open bottle tops is still the domain of the man, for example. Why, I had to do it the other day on a bottle of squash for a friend's wife who is a financial manager. I really don't know any guy that is EXPECTED to stay in the kitchen and cook and clean. Those of us who do, do it because we either have no one else to do it or are sharing duties in the house. I really am not offended about these role reversal because they're not highlighting any real social structure for modern men whereas the 50s ads did regarding women. Let's have a photo series about divorced dads, homeless men, convicted males and juxtapose them against their female counterparts if you really want to get up nose.

Divorce was less common because women in the 1950s were completely dependent on their husbands. They had no money, education, or careers of their own and thus couldn't support themselves if they left. Thank guy in the sky that this "stay together for the kids" mentality is on its way out. As for "respect", people often had to show it because they'd be beaten if they didn't. There were no rules against corporal punishment like there are today; violence should never be an acceptable response for anyone or any age or gender.

Every ad is insulting, 'cos we view it with today's glasses. But I think these are an oversimplification of history. And sure those values are out of fashion and we shouldn't bring them back! But the reality was not that women their place was in the kitchen, and the men were free to choose. For most families the reality was women stayed at home - they had no choice-, and men had to work s****y jobs -they had no choice. Many men worked jobs that significantly reduced their life expectancy and quality. Just to provide for their families. Only a small small percentage of men were able to have glamorous careers and enjoy higher education. Today we have no choice. We only have the illusion of choice. Either gender must work outside the home and bring our children to day care. Many parents don't even witness the first steps and words of their own children.

The saddest part is that advertisement for woman-oriented goods haven't really changed all that much. In the thisties it was "douse your ladyparts in Lysol or HE WILL LEAVE YOU YOU SMELLY CREATURE". Now it's much subtler, but the underlying message "get this product or no man ever will find you attractive" is still predominant. Just flip open any ladies' magazine and see for yourself.
None 7 years ago
Not only Lysol was seen as a cleaning agent for those parts, it was also a contraceptive in a time when those were seen as a bad thing, so those ads were basically saying "if you get pregnant and he's not into it, it's YOUR fault because you didn't use this harsh chemical to kill all of his seeds inside you".

Just remember that when Conservatives harken to the 'Good old days' and how happy they were, just remember this is what they are harkening to. Art reflects life. This is actually what life was like for women. They often got through it by drinking, smoking and scarfing down lots and lots of pills. Surely the men were happy but not the women and that is why the Women's Movement happened. It would have never happened if women were contented and fulfilled being treated like that.

They are not really offensive because they simply don't work as commentary on the gender or human conditions. The reason that such ads could be made in the past is because they reflected a reality, even if it was extreme. To simply reverse the roles fails due to the same logic. Women do occupy nor have they replaced men in the hierarchy. Men do not do house work, are not primary care givers, (with exception), do not stay home cooking etc...nor are they physically weaker and or concerned with traditionally female themes. So the whole thing is a no go.

Why did the male in the new copy ads have to be so effeminate? I would have made more of a point had the man been a typical masculine man. Also, that was just the way it was in those days. No one was offended as it just was. Most women wanted to be in the home and enjoyed their roles back then. The funny part was, men and women worked equally back then, he put in long hours and did the heavy lifting, she nurtured her children and made the home a place of health and well being for the family. Also, finances were shared and both had a goal of providing for the home and family. It wasn't all bad.

If there are guys out there who are offended by this in anyway, let me give some info. Feminists have pussified you! There is nothing particularly clever about this because the purported modern male stereotypes are simply not true while many of the 50s female ones still are. The ability to open bottle tops is still the domain of the man, for example. Why, I had to do it the other day on a bottle of squash for a friend's wife who is a financial manager. I really don't know any guy that is EXPECTED to stay in the kitchen and cook and clean. Those of us who do, do it because we either have no one else to do it or are sharing duties in the house. I really am not offended about these role reversal because they're not highlighting any real social structure for modern men whereas the 50s ads did regarding women. Let's have a photo series about divorced dads, homeless men, convicted males and juxtapose them against their female counterparts if you really want to get up nose.

Divorce was less common because women in the 1950s were completely dependent on their husbands. They had no money, education, or careers of their own and thus couldn't support themselves if they left. Thank guy in the sky that this "stay together for the kids" mentality is on its way out. As for "respect", people often had to show it because they'd be beaten if they didn't. There were no rules against corporal punishment like there are today; violence should never be an acceptable response for anyone or any age or gender.

Every ad is insulting, 'cos we view it with today's glasses. But I think these are an oversimplification of history. And sure those values are out of fashion and we shouldn't bring them back! But the reality was not that women their place was in the kitchen, and the men were free to choose. For most families the reality was women stayed at home - they had no choice-, and men had to work s****y jobs -they had no choice. Many men worked jobs that significantly reduced their life expectancy and quality. Just to provide for their families. Only a small small percentage of men were able to have glamorous careers and enjoy higher education. Today we have no choice. We only have the illusion of choice. Either gender must work outside the home and bring our children to day care. Many parents don't even witness the first steps and words of their own children.
