In contrast, the above ad can be used against both male and female archetypes. The male is supposed to be able to satisfy, protect, and care for a woman, just as the woman is supposed to submit, be protected, and tend to her protector. I know that the argument seems almost elementary, but really dig for these signs in any ad, both printed and on television (nowadays in the internet, also). We like to think gender roles have changed, but thousands of years of rules still live among us.
