I think the copy says: Though she was a tiger lady, our hero didn't have to fire a shot to floor her. After one look at his Mr Leggs slacks, she was ready to have him walk all over her. That noble styling sure soothes the savage heart! If you'd like your own doll-to-doll carpeting, hunt up a pair of these he-man Mr. Leggs slacks. Such as our new automatic wash wear blend of 65% "Dacron" and 35% rayon - incomparably wrinkle-resistant. About $12.95 at plush-carpeted stores."
"Get yourself a new pair of Mr. Leggs."
Social change takes a while.
But with ads like this running in, I dunno, the 60's... it feels like women's liberation (or whatever) in America skyrocketed in the past 50 years.
Not making a point. I'm just sayin'.
It really is funny to read this ad to see how far things have come. If this were printed now this magazine would have been floored forever.

This would have gained a magazine outcry if published in print.
