"As any man with a woman that can go out and get the man a beer has found the right one". Here shows an example of a newlywed knowing what beer the man wants. <BR/>http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/gender/menincontrol/pics/mencontrol7.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/gender/pages/menincontrol.htm&h=446&w=330&sz=27&hl=en&start=15&usg=__sKP4Ilvb7pCimwrEvEsfS56gRcQ=&tbnid=Ml0RJQkwQGZrLM:&tbnh=127&tbnw=94&prev=/images%3Fq%3DGender%2BAdvertisements%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den%26safe%3DoffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-73991994697693524632008-10-11T13:41:00.000-07:002008-10-11T13:41:00.000-07:00http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/gender/violentwome...http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/<BR/>gender/violentwomen/pics/<BR/>violentwomen7.jpg<BR/><BR/>Let's see if this will allow me to put the link down.

It was not surprising how difficult it was to find something in this category. This advertisement places the female in a place of authority, and the male as the victim. I found it interesting in that the woman is not curvaceous, she has no breasts and her hair is very short in the front. Her manner of dress is also not what you would call sexy or feminine. She herself looks somewhat like a young man.Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387617959097478876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-67347125999948832842008-10-10T20:00:00.000-07:002008-10-10T20:00:00.000-07:00I found one of the rare advertisements which put t...I found one of the rare advertisements which put the women in a position of power over men.<BR/><BR/>http://www.wilsonsalmanac.com/images/voodoo.jpg<BR/><BR/>This picture is option "e" all the way. The women has all the authority while the men are brought to the level of beasts on a leash, literary. Notice how the women offers no target of sexual advance nor invites any. The woman's clothing is fashionable but not scanty, possibly symbolizing a sexual barrier. Also, her face is not visible, but I am divided as to why. Does the absence of a face symbolize that this women is unattainable? Or does it simply make the advertisement less personable? If it is the later, then the advertisement is implying that all women hold such power and not just some individual.samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06917626848613021678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-46059218656316461022008-10-10T15:20:00.000-07:002008-10-10T15:20:00.000-07:00This site has quite a few ads that collectively sa...This site has quite a few ads that collectively satisfy every category listed.

Dove hopes to build a world where women are capable of accepting themselves as being beautiful, and giving them positive, un-airbrushed role models to look up to, to not only banish negativity about ones body in comparison to others, but to raise self esteem of not only young girls, but those who have lived in throughout decades of harmful falsehoods and negativity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-82727672927045578072008-10-10T10:37:00.000-07:002008-10-10T10:37:00.000-07:00Here is an ad that I found that seems to be, accor...Here is an ad that I found that seems to be, according to the article, a better ad than Varsace is normally known for, I have no idea what that means, but I would say that this fits the a, b, and c, categories. <BR/><BR/>http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2204/2172633767_c33cb3cd3f_o.jpg<BR/><BR/>I also found another ad for Puma, that essentially fits all of the criteria, but I am not going to post it since it is a bit graphic, especially for a shoe ad.

While not overly controversial, it certainly objectifies the woman, Alice Fraasa. It really must be true: sex appeal sells.<BR/><BR/>http://images.yuku.com/image/pjpeg/d8015aebdfa11aa4ff8397e20af74a68124d419.pjpg<BR/><BR/>Also, with all the focus tending to be on the harm caused to women, I think it is only fair to question the effects that such an emphasis on sex and apparent female submission in advertising has on men. Based on the ads found in Kilbourne's article, it would appear that society believes that men should play the dominant role in interactions with women.<BR/><BR/>Of course, there are many cases where this is simply not true. I have witnessed countless relationships where the female plays a more dominant role--she "wears the pants." Since the man in the relationship appears more meek than is generally encouraged by society, he is somewhat of an outcast. He's whipped.<BR/><BR/>Kilbourne mentions this concept on page 420 of the seventh edition, but fails to discuss it any further than simply admitting its existence.timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058168307706121749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-72295978874206379732008-10-09T23:53:00.000-07:002008-10-09T23:53:00.000-07:00http://www.funnyhub.com/pictures/pages/bmw-face-ad...http://www.funnyhub.com/pictures/pages/bmw-face-advertisement.html<BR/><BR/>This was the first hit that yahoo images came up with for advertisement, which I thought was surprising, since I had thought that there was less of this kind of advertisement now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-75778421063178095522008-10-09T11:18:00.000-07:002008-10-09T11:18:00.000-07:00http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/gender/womenusebod...http://www.ltcconline.net/lukas/gender/womenusebody/pics/usebody5.jpg<BR/><BR/>I found this add by following links off of wikipedia.

It depicts a woman clothed in lingerie and high heels, lying on a bed with a bullet in her head, with the title above reading "Beautifully Executed." <BR/>After reading Kilbourne's essay, I was a bit skeptical; I didn't think advertisers flaunted violence towards women as much as she claimed. However, I found this disturbing picture on the first Google page under the broad search term "advertisement." This advertisement blatantly depicts, if not encourages, violence towards women and supports Kilbourne's position that advertising objectifies and harms women.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08362595702037067120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563805483319822367.post-78641994853762092242008-10-08T15:58:00.000-07:002008-10-08T15:58:00.000-07:00I would say this ad falls under both category c an...I would say this ad falls under both category c and e.
