    Wow. The body of the ad makes me feel bad for dudes. Really. I had no idea they were so susceptible to double eyelashes!


    Also, WTF are double eyelashes?

    @..now it's just Aesop's Foibles.: It is that sad phenomenon where a man's lashes are double as long as a woman's, thus negating the need for man-scara, and denying them the fun of eye makeup. Poor dudes.

    ...nomadism?


    Is this a disease whose affliction manifests as the inability to live in one place? Hunter-gatherer-itis? And what does smoking skinny cigarettes have to do with that?

    I do feel a little bit better, though, knowing I won't suddenly find myself wandering the desert against my will.

    "Women are more resistant to starvation [...] than men are."


    Hmm. How did they come to that conclusion?

    @Eleanor Ramilly: Because we generally have a higher percentage of body fat? Just a guess.


    I thought the mention of being "resistant to illness" was a nice touch, too.

    @Eleanor Ramilly: I think that might actually be true. We have a higher body fat percentage naturally, and that little extra layer over our stomachs to protect the uterus. Or so I've been told anyway

    I thought, if if I'm wrong please correct me, resistance to starvation had to do with size/weight of the animal, not percentage of body fat?

    @Eleanor Ramilly: I don't think so actually, because smaller people/things have a smaller caloric need, and fat is what you're feeding off of. That's why tiny things like squirrels can make it through the winter on stored fat

    @colormeroutine: Hmm, this makes sense. I guess my brain is wired to read something like that and think WTF? What does that have to do with cigarettes (slim cigarettes, of course) and why would that be the first example of female superiority?

    Unfortunately, Virginia Dahling, the bros I hit on at the bars in order to get cigarettes usually don't have delicate lady-cigarettes.

    These cigarettes are biologically superior to men because they can create little baby cigarettes in their bodies. Man cigarettes have, since the dawn of cigarettekind, been extraordinarily jealous of this ability down to their very tobacco cores. This jealousy is at the base of all masculine actions of creation and destruction throughout history and has led the male cigarettes to cause cancer, in their quest for immortality.

    @wtfox?!: That's another attempt by the boy cigarettes to take power away from the Virginia Slims. They also medicalized the cigarette birthing process, making Lady Cigarettes dependant on short, stubby male Dr. Cigarettes to give birth.
