After watching the Jean Kilbourne video, I now see the big problem in media when advertising women.  Media hasn’t always advertise the truth and they are still to this day trying to get it right. But they are more concern whats going to sell. People want to look and feel good and if the right company can convince them that their product can do the job, people will buy it.  People grow up seeing these ads and believe that being perfect is the only way to achieve anything in life. The media projects this image of perfect being fit, have clear skin, and have long hair for women. Along with some other features. In today’s society somethings have changed but not a lot. Not being fit is socially acceptable now. Plus size models are now a thing but they aren’t representing every size for women. There’s still a lot to be addressed before ads aren’t hurting the true women’s image. I believe these images show how hurtful ads can be to the woman’s image.
