Every time I see an ad with a female model advertising something, I can't help but notice the way she's been displayed.
I mean, look at this one: http://medianet.news.com.au/adv.research/c...n-klein-lge.jpg Or this one: http://www.hi-design.ru/brand/Calvin%20Kle...es/klein_00.jpg I think that's just wrong. I keep seeing younger and younger models being sexualised. And it's not sending a very good message to teenagers, is it? Is this disturbing only to me? Or do people find it "cool"? What is it that I don't understand? Do you find that these ads are ok? Discuss. Taylor`` |

It may be degrading, but as stated above, we did kind of ask for it with the whole "free women" thing.
I dont know, I dont really mind it. Hey if they look good doing it why not? |

Hey if they look good doing it why not? That's exactly what I'm talking about. 14/15-year-olds find it okay to look like a sex toy to men. And you wonder why they think that we have "sexy" bodies and empty brains. Taylor`` |
