New Perspective

This class has made me look at magazines and advertisements more critically. I recently recieved a catalog for Bebe and I couldn't believe how much sexual contact was being shown. Bebe usually has women who are dressed provacatively and sitting in sexually suggestive manners. The most recent catalog I recieved showed a women with two naked men on either side of her. The photo shows her in power of their gaze. The photo reminds me of some of dolce and gabanas advertisements. Women are portrayed as secxual objects over and over againg whether in magazines or advertisements. Do they beleive their clothing won't sell if women were portrayed in a less sexually provacative manner?
