Sexist Advertaising

Starting with a new topic, we started to study the stereotypes that we have in our society.

A easy way of seeing some examples is watching some adverts. At first sight, probably we don't get them easily but there are more that we can imagine.

With three of my classmates, we studied one of the adverts that we had watched.

This advert is for men and it shows that this deodorant is a way for attracting women.

In the advert there is only visual language.

It takes places in different moments in history.

The women role here is like they were an object. The only woman that appears is young, beautiful, thin and tall. She represents the purity, the beuaty and the innocence.

The men role is the most important in the advert. The only one who appears is tall, good-looking, strong and he is so in love with the beuaty of the woman. He represents that animal spirit all men have when they see a beautiful woman. 

Conclusion about Love

Last week we've been working on a new topic: LOVE

We talked about some ideas (like jealousy, if you should change because of a person...) and gave our opinion about them and at the end, in groups of three or four we made a conclusion.

This is what my gorup think about love:

We think that in any relationship there will be always a bit of jealousy, but we have to be careful with that. If you can control them because you trust your couple, that's okay. But, the problem starts when you or your couple don't want to see each other talking to different people or when you don't want to see him/her with a particular type of clothing.
We also think that there will be arguements where someone has to give up even though it's not his/her opinion. But this arguements never have to get into a real fight where one of them hits the other.
Obviously, if you are in a relationship, don't let the other person changes you because first of all, you have to love yourself no matter what, and, secondly, because your couple fell in love with you and the way you are, so change, for example, the colour of your hair shouldn't be a problem. 

Conclusion about an Inside out World

After talking about LOVE and work a bit on that topic, we read an article written in 70s where all the roles were changed. It was about a man who was asking for a job in a company where all the employees and the boss were women. This man was the man of the house.

Our teacher told us to do another conclusion and this is ours:

Nowadays, however we think things have changed a lot, the haven't. Although now we know everyone can do any type of job, there still being some differences betwwen men and women: it's more unlikely for a woman to become a boss in a company, they get less money than men when they have the same position, etc.



My picture for this is:

This is what the front camera can do.

Impossible poses

On magazines, on social media like instagram or twitter we can see everyday lots of pictures about models wearing clothes, posing with a fragance, etc. But sometimes we don't really pay attention to their poses, because some of them are a little bit weird.

In class we watched a video of some women copying some magazine poses in the middle of the street and people reactions are completely different to the way they react when they see that pose on a magazine.

I searched some impossible poses:

This girl is Maria Borges. She is from Angola.

This is Lily Aldridge. She is from California and she is one of the Victoria's Secret Angels.

In my house there is a little kitten that can also do these impossible poses:
