Gender Representation in the Media (3)

Question: Do you think that fashion advertisements are portraying too much of provocativeness?

I bet there are many reasons why these advertisements are used. Basically, they need to CAPTURE ATTENTION and in order to do that, the content of the ad must be something out of the box. I studied about theories regarding advertisements and basically such images are used to create a certain mood or image of the brand. However, these fashion industries should consider the repercussions of too many of these ads being used as it creates stereotypes of women.

Strange/puzzling/interesting phenomena: Despite the portrayal of these supposedly crude images which in a way puts women is a bad light, I am actually attracted to it. I feel puzzled over such a feeling because I should be against such portrayals of women but I cannot stop myself from being attracted to these images.
