Hey everyone,
I have been working thoroughly through my project, collecting, researching and finalising my work. I have been continuously scanning websites, and i havent noticed much change over the years of advertising, not to my surprise. Women are stil being portrayed as demoralising symbols, from cigarette and alcohol packagings to sexual poses and sexual items. Every where I go, wether it be a block away from home or a long main road i see posters of women in unnatural positions, flyers being handed out (from cavendish) along side the road, about specials at La Senza and if its not these sources of advertisements, its those along the highway BILLBOARDS. I think, from what i have gathered, that the world in general is not shy at all to present the people and especially the youth, with this sort of advertisements. These types of adverts are becoming such a common occurrance that people are finding it so natural and that they are not paying attention to their surroundings and what effect it could have on the youth.
Its desensatising everyone of us...the media moves the boarder line of shock and exposure of people's bodies...slowly...
