Haha thats tickled me. What bizarre pictures. Can you imagine the marketing meetings? "Well folks the pink dress and tan cullottes didn't go down to well with the ladies. Let's try a dish of spuds and roasted veg. Now for the blokes. How about we get dressed in suits and go canoeing........

I definitely look a lot more like the potatoes than like the model in the top picture.

Cardigan clad canoeing for men and some Brussels sprouts for the ladies...maybe they were hungover that day Grin

I think she looks pissed of that the men have gone canoeing and the food is going cold.

Wonder if they've got a weird algorithm that selects the most popular image for each gender that visits the site?

Bloke in the top right has done well out of the women's knits section.

I think that's David Gandy? Not exactly the most practical gear for canoeing though, especially in this weather!

But I agree that M&S get women wrong on a daily basis - their clothes are hideous these days and have really gone downhill.

Their proofreading is terrible. I once emailed them (yes, ridiculous, I just couldn’t help myself) to tell them they had “bowels” listed under kitchen equipment. They didn’t seem too bothered.

They certainly have their market and buying wrong. Very wrong.
