sure

Well, to be quite honest seeing the topic that we are to discuss in these blogs for this week, made me wonder if I should even bother reading the readings for this week because it was very easy to see where this is going. 

Women for as long as Tv has been made have constantly been portrayed as either working at home mothers while the father was the bread winner or now as sexual objects while the men are the dominant speciman who gets to choose his mate.  If you really think about it the importance ads place on hypersexuality kind of makes me think of animals.  I mean think about it, when an animal mates for the most part it is the men who choose their women.  They run up to them without the females having a choice and ya the rest is history.  Therefore, proving that the male is the dominant speciman and the females are to just be the objects almost like a buisness transaction. 

For some reason ads are displayed in exactly the same sort of maner. Especially the ads in which the product being sold is a predominantly male product.  An example of this is of course beer commercials.  How many ads have you seen where a bunch of females are drinking at a table at a party with all males dancing around with their shirts off staring into their eyes oh so pasionatly. 

These ads teach young teenage girls that it is only but appropriate to act that way.  Also, they try to dress like these girls and be just as skinny as them which creates a Tsunami of problems.  No female after seeing a beautiful girl on the cover of Teen Vogue really sits down as says oh well this is air brushed and they added this and etc.. to make her look as beautiful as she does.  Instead they see a beautiful girl with no flaws, and decide that this is what they should become

The media definatly needs to be alot more conscious of the sort of messages they are sending out!
