Philadelphia stir in advert

But take a look at the ads below — all of which are all from — and you'll see that blatant sexism in advertising is still very much alive. Here are just three examples of just how sexist ads can be. In February, clothes company Boden was forced to apologise after a wave of online criticism over text printed in its Mini Boden catalogue. The campaign suggested that boys like adventure, bikes and mischief, and need clothes to match their active lifestyles, while girls need pockets so they can fill them with flowers.

Seriously Bodenclothing? Keep up. Boden responded by saying: "We're so sorry for blotting our copybook in such style. It also said: "Please accept our sincere apologies. And we will ask Don Draper to stop writing our copy.

The new Boden catalogue doesn't feature this same campaign. On a side note, there is still a distinct lack of pockets on many of the girls' items of clothing, so it's unclear where they are supposed to put their flowers. NatWest came under fire in May for a campaign launched in association with Stylist magazine which claims to feature stories through a 'feminist lens'. The campaign was aimed at women, and featured a man in a pinstriped suit, 'Mr Banker', apologising for how banks have treated women in the past.

The problem was, in its effort to say sorry for being patronising, the ads managed to be extremely patronising.
