As Super Bowl Sunday approaches, lady viewers should brace themselves for the inevitable onslaught of sexist advertisements and get their eyes ready to roll.
Buzzfeed asked five women who don’t normally watch football to watch Super Bowl commercials from years past and guess what the advertisements were selling. The commercials are overtly sexual with each objectifying women in different ways. The products being sold in the advertisements, however, have nothing to do with sex.
