Now when I first saw the ad, I wasn't shocked because I knew it was a topical ad. I also know that the roles of each gender were changed because the woman relaxed on the couch while the man did the housework; and I know it's biased to say that men can't clean their house when their girlfriend or wife embodies a masculine role that takes away from their masculinity. So as an experiment I had shown both adverts to my mother, father and grandparents to get some of their opinions on the adverts and it was exactly what I expected, the woman who was my mother and grandmother saw nothing wrong. with ad 1 where the man was cleaning while the woman was relaxing by reading a newspaper. However, my grandmother said it was funny to see a man cleaning the house while the woman was relaxing, she also felt like the woman should have vacuumed the floor while the man relaxed and read the newspaper. This was very understanding for me to hear because my grandmother is sixty-five years old and was born in the late 40's, while my mother was born in the late 60's, so I know the roles gender have changed in two centuries, which is why there are points of view.
