Sexism sells

There is a long-standing connection between women and cars.  And by “connection” I mean that men seem to like looking at women and cars together, as seen on the covers of many car magazines (incidentally, I’ve never understood this connection and always wished that the models would get out of the way so I could see the cars).  Here are a few of the ways that women can be used to sell cars:

Implying that women, like cars, can be "preowned."

This apparently means that the mechanic needs a new job (like the Maytag repair man).

Clearly, an ad for toy cars...

What a lucky girl! First Ralph let her stick around even though he bought a new car, then he let her clean it!

Like a spirited woman but better, because it "costs so little to keep happy."
