when I was young, I saw this "info-mercial" for a make-up line with the most interesting idea for selling their product. Instead of having women demonstrate it, they had a couple of guys get made-over instead. The idea, apparently, was to show that if a guy could come out looking good, then a woman would look fantastic. So they took a father and son, and made them over, and had them surprise their families with their new look. Seems to me like there is a story in there for someone to have some fun with, don't you agree?

This is actually a major part of the plotline of early episodes of Tuck by Ellen Hayes.

It's Probably Online Somewhere...

...if I knew where to look.

But back around 1985, in their "Sunday Punch" supplement, the San Francisco Chronicle ran a quarter page ad circa 1921, in which a store that sold foundation garments dressed up a local male performer (an actor, I think) in its products, with the copy informing readers that if their products could make someone without a feminine body structure look this good, just imagine what they'd do for women who did have the figure for it.
