I always thought that the media portrayed unrealistic women as heroins and people for everyday women to look up to. I love to bring attention to the dove commercial which shows exactly what goes into making a woman a "television ready woman." Myself as a woman in this society I applaud this campaign, however I am extremely upset with how little it was actually shown on television. I had not heard of it until I had seen it in a few of my classes here at Ithaca College. This is a shame, because for once people were brave enough to show the truth, but it didn't get to be showcased the way it should have. How does this make you feel?
This short is amazing! I know that when I look at billboards, ads on tv and photos in magazines I have to remember how much work is put into making them look a certain way. These "perfect" women are just not real. (Literally! they are just based off of what people actually look like!)
