Offensive or funny? Maybe funny because what else can you do but laugh at something that was actually totally acceptable at one time? I'm not sure I would have liked being a woman in the past. What about you?

Our base gym had that exercise machine in a back corner in the 70's, I loved playing with it while my parent were working out. You know, come to think of it, I Was really skinny back then!

Was this not an article for entertainment? Times have changed, people have smartened up and most don't agree with these ads. These would never come out now since yes obviously sexism is not funny and I did not say that. You need to chill.
