Sexual Revolution Research

While researching the Sexual Revolution in the 1960's for the resubmission of my essay I came across some advertisements on a website which are sexist towards women.  The posters range from the 40's to the 60's.  They focus mostly on where a women's "rightful place" is, for example in the kitchen.  Unlike later posters where women are seen more as a sexual object, they are portrayed to be there to cook, clean and look pretty.
