I agree with Sheets-Johnstone’s claim that “women inspire male sexual desire simply by existing.” In the twenty first centuries, targeting western culture, women are constantly examined by men based alone on their outward appearance. A woman can be reduced to only to certain body parts such as the genitalia. This is because a woman’s appearance alone can cause a male to become aroused which naturally leads to this kind of degradation. The woman as a whole is basically forgotten. Because it is common for men to behave in this manner, it is almost routine for a woman to be appeasing to a man for approval.
Rhona is making a reference to how beauty effects the way a male boss looks at his female employees. The play is suggesting that attractive women are not smart. Here, Mim is being used by Jim as a window dressing to cover up Rhona’s assumed unattractiveness, while Mim outweighs the smart aspect of the duo. Although I don’t agree with this assumption,
She seems to show her support by discussing the pleasure the female population have gotten from the ads. After so many years of females being objectified, the cultural change excites Bordo and results in her exaggeration of the pleasure she gets in the male model ads. For example, when describing the Gucci ad, she overemphasizes her description of the model by saying “his bottom, that is--gorgeously, completely naked” (137). However, she treats the description as a corny romantic visual. The very beginning of her essay seems to be geared toward a male
First off, I would like to briefly talk about the advertisers goal. Their goal is to make women feel like their men can be better by using Old Spice Body Wash. I say women because that is their targeting audience. In the commercial, the lead actor says, “So ladies, should your man smell like and old spics man? You tell me.” (Old Spice) I personally loved this commercial because it was funny to me.
He talks about appearances on what a person thinks about another also he mention examples how man and women dresses professional in offices they want to impress people. A man wearing a suit might be more professional than a person wearing flip flops, jeans or shorts at in office. What is stating in his point of view. People tend to judge others based on their beauty meaning that people judge others, but looks should not matter at all because we live in a world that no one is perfect and everyone should be treated equally also we should be comfortable in how we look instead of impressing others to appreciating us as individuals we are not instead of being someone we really are because some people might be something they are not when in reality they want impress to make the other person feel better. Now a day you get a lot of reactions or impressions for other people.
Berger basically says she isn’t naked for herself but naked for the viewer that notices her. Bordo reveals her effort to describe and discuss the eating habits and behaviors of man and women. She unmasks the ‘hidden’ messages by media and our society. She talks about the pressure put of women in the Victorian age. Bordo examines societies ways of forcing the idea of the ‘ideal women’ through commercials, advertising, and
Observation Paper: First Hand Experience of Observing Gendered Behavior The behavioral differences between men and women are almost so blunt and right in your face that most people do not even notice them without paying attention. I realized this after I went to three separate destinations with the mindset that maybe there would be some differences that were noticeable, but nothing that would surprise me. Oh boy was I wrong. The places I checked out were, the Thirsty Lion Pub and Grill, Wal-mart, and Cue Club, which is a bar on Mill Avenue. At each of these destinations I had observed many differences in the ways men and women communicated from basic gender roles to the social behaviors between each gender.
The world has become more accepting to homosexuals because of advertisements like these. I wonder if a homosexual male would be turned on by these pictures. When a man sees a woman we first judge looks, examining it from a homosexual’s point of view, it makes sense that they would be turned on at first glance. Bordo’s example in “Male Decorativeness in Cultural Perspective” brings light to femininity in dressing style as well as masculinity. She uses Michael Jordan as an example of his masculinity in sports and femininity in dressing style.

While looking at the front cover, I had an eerie feeling that cosmopolitan focuses mainly on women providing the best sexual experience for men. Some of the articles read as follows, “What he wants to see during sex”, “Sex Survey” and “25 Fun, Free Dates”. It came to me that women are seen as an item. This brought me back to the “Women and Body” power point, where it describes the media’s messages of the body being that “women are shown as sex objects in magazines set up for the male gaze”. Details on the other hand, seemed to focus on looks on this specific issue.
