This is because the massive difference regarding cooking roles back in the 20s/60s, has changed. There are more often ads that involve men who are doing the cooking rather than the women. The world now, is equal for men and women. Also the perfume ads now have equally men and women in the ads. The adverts has improved and made the whole place and better world.
