Just watched the season finally of Mad Men and had to find this ad.

[Barry I. Grauman]

This ad first appeared in 1969, at the time Philip Morris introduced Virginia Slims. And what a campaign! Because of ads like this, VS quickly became the most popular brand among woman smokers.....

[David Carpenter]

Too bad ads don't use jingles anymore. They usually use recycled popular music, or music without words. But a lot of those old jingles, including this one, were pretty snappy.

Talk about being a hypocrite! You chew him out for saying fuck, and then you call him an asshole? Okaaay now.

Feminists are re-embracing being feminine. They have realized that trying to be more like men means they were just buying into the same misogynistic ideals that brought them to embrace feminism in the first place and denying who they are as people. I'm cool with it. I like a liberated and intelligent woman is also feminine (I have a thing for women in heels, can't help it!)

Ain't nothing sexier than a woman smoking! ^^

[Kathy Rankin]

I started to smoke those when MS Magazine came out..

[Terri Powers]

I always thought they were rolled in brown paper to look like a skinny cigar, but still be a cigarette! Was that someone else?

I have remembered this commercial for all these years and was happy to see it again. Thanks. As a child I thought it was fun and loved the song:)
