Stereotypes in Magazine Ads (internet) Assignment.
1.
2. This ad i found is advertising a product called "Handi Wrap". in this picture it is the woman using this product to wrap multiple sandwiches, assuming they would be in the kitchen.. while her husband stands behind her and watches but does not seem to be helping.
Ideally society these days would be aruguing both woman and men should be in the kitchen and playing even roles for the most part, while others in society might still be heavily stuck in the past... get over it to those who disagree with my first statement! this is 2013 :D
3.As a female I can relate to this stereotype because you still hear people, generally naive men or teens continuing to use this stereotype as if they have been living under a rock all these years. This sterotype sadly still exists in the social media, which is why it makes this relateable. When I am older I vow not to do all of the cooking/cleaning.
This advertisment meets the stereotype of the woman being in the kitchen making sandwiches or in general doing to food preparation, while the male does nothing or heads to work etc.

2. This ad shows a woman laying on the floor "where she belongs". After read the review from the site i got this from, it portrays the idea that woman and men are at very different social classes and that whoever made this ad wanted to show the male role as the dominant role.
The idea created from this ad is the idea that back then woman were shown as being at a lower social stature in society and being lower than the male.
3. I as a female relate to this because, like the last photo it objectifies women by making us (women) seen as being on a lesser stature in society, below men.
This stereotype is recognizable because the woman is on the floor where her apparent "place" is.
to the men who adhere to this ad and accept it... Get over yourselves!
