Media's Degradation

The media is one of the most influential things available today. Even if we try to avoid it, the media will sneak it's way into your life. Sometimes it can be a good influence on women, but most times it seems to bring them down. Here are some ads that almost make a mockery of women, and do not value them as a person, but as an item!

Who knows what Burger King was trying to do, but their point was not to attract women into their restaurants. The ad shows the female with her mouth wide open and the words "It'll blow" largely printed below her. This is one of the most ridiculous ads, that does not help the company, but instead adds more problems not only for the company, but also to society.

  

In the ever present world, men are becoming more likely to stay home and raise kids, while the women works to bring home the bacon. While that may be the case in some instances, this ad seems to think it is not a real option. Even if a women are the bread winner, they are still thought to cook, clean, and be superwoman.

Degrading women started years ago, and is continuing to this day! The image demonstrates how women were perceived as being weak, and unable to do minimal tasks.

I am afraid this Skyy vodka ad will give young girls the idea that alcohol makes you sexy and that is not the case!

These were just a few ads that companies put out to the public to bring women down. Even if that was not the intention, it is what they do. Women might feel inferior next to these ads, but they shouldn't. We are all powerful and do not need an ad to tell us how to look, act, or dress.
