Women In Advertising

Advertising is everywhere. Women are really the most effective ingredient, when it comes to advertising. So now, every women is under the impression that they need to look good. Why, cause in advertising they don't just use a girl for their products they use girls, literally. Like, they were using the hair of a girl, the body of the other girl and the face of another. Imagine how advertising grew from decades ago. Companies really are taking this seriously more and more each year. As technology grows Advertising grows a well. Even your favorite celebrity that looks perfect for you are being turned better because of technology.

Women's self-esteem decreases as they are being influenced based on the things that they see on ads that they need to look good. Advertising is really using beauty to attract people. That's why they used celebrity or any popular personality to buy their products. It's really a good thing too see how our technology evolves. But I think we should keep in mind that we shouldn't be that affected in how we live or how we want to live. In advertising technology should really grow.

But in our society what should really grow? Is it our technology or our self-esteem? For me, I think our technology grows every minute, and every minute they create such things that we might need in our lives, but for the self esteem of the women? For me my answer is no, because every women who indulge themselves into fashion and glorify their favorite celebrities or model, i think through these women they lost their own identity and make themselves blind in advertising. And because of this behavior Jean Kilbourne said that it can lead to depression, low self esteem, and eating disorders for the women. 

Somehow, advertising can be a good purpose to us, but on the other hand there has this negative impact if we overuse it. And I'm pretty sure that as time goes by advertising changes as they explore the world of giving life on how to advertise their own product.

  1. A glaring truth. Women are USED! But why do we let this happen? I know the answer. Money. Fame and other things meant to feed selfish dreams. See the result. Fantastic! A growing population of women not contented with what they have. You have a different point of view from other articles I've read with the same topic as yours. Thanks for sharing your thoughts to me :)
