Alpine Qaeda!

Click the ad to see it at full size. Thanks to Miss Fipi Lele and deepdisco for the picture.

The copy reads like something that the Mullah who called unveiled women “uncovered meat” would have written, had he gone into advertising:

Men are better than women! Indoors, women are useful — even pleasant. On a mountain, they are something of a drag. So don’t go hauling them up a cliff just to show off your Drummond climbing sweaters. No need to. These pullovers look great anywhere. On the level!

“Indoors, women are useful,” the ad copy may read, but looking at the two guys in the ad, I don’t think they have any use for women, nudge nudge wink wink.
