I have this version of Battleship.

It is crazy; that this seemed like a good idea to put on the box, at any point in the past.

All that 50's "advertising" that was essentially social conditioning and oppression, hear me out, because all the women had to do all the jobs while the men were gone. They got a taste of freedom, their own money and skills. They were all like, how hard can it be, boys do it. But when the men came back they had to shove them back in the box, they had to effectively put the cat back in the bag, it required a huge effort of bullying from the government and all. Like they hit hard with this kinda pervasive stuff, everywhere. That's when women were forced into the "get in the kitchen" role. Now we get to have both! Work AND be predominantly responsible for the majority of the house labor and child raising, yay!
