I was surprised to see how many years are wasted in our lifetime from just watching commercials. They are a big part of our lives, and it may go unnoticed. I have always noticed how ads objectify women and use sexuality to sell products. I noticed how they abuse that image, when they use it for products that are irrelevant. They use it as a way to get the attention of certain viewers, and its wrong. It gives viewers the wrong idea, and is a bad image for little girls watching. They shouldn&#8217;t grow up to see women being portrayed as an object on TV and billboards. The norm of society is not whats being displayed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"744\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/antanuos-psyc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15419\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-27-at-10.19.16-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/antanuos-psyc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15419\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-27-at-10.19.16-PM.png 744w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/antanuos-psyc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15419\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-27-at-10.19.16-PM-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/antanuos-psyc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15419\/2019\/10\/Screen-Shot-2019-10-27-at-10.19.16-PM-448x300.png 448w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 744px) 100vw, 744px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> These advertisements show how all types of products can be sold by advertising women being objectified. Samsung gives a wrong message saying that &#8220;true beauty is curved.&#8221; Beauty in the media should shown from what&#8217;s inside a person, not the outside. Alexander Wang doesn&#8217;t need a fully naked girl, that&#8217;s not even wearing the denim, to sell their clothing. The bottom two ads show sexuality. American Apparel expresses a unnecessary sexual gesture to sell clothing. Aston Martin compared their pre-owned vehicles to women who have been with other men. The use of the ads like these is very disrespectful towards women. I wouldn&#8217;t wan&#8217;t to raise a daughter in a society that shows her she is just an object. Women should be empowered in advertisements not objectified.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The video really showed me just how big the advertisement industry is.
