Publicity in magazines, good or bad?


I was with my friends and they were watching a fashion magazine. It is normal in these types of magazines that you have publicity about many types of beauty products, especially perfumes and cosmetics. Then at the middle of the magazine you have super skinny photosphed models with a themed photo shoot.

Then my friend, a boy, said "Oh, I must stop watching it only makes me feel bad" (it was an image of a male actor). And then I started thinking about that comment, he feels bad because he doesn´t look like him but he is intelligent enough to not make anything risky to change himself but I can´t say the same about other girls.

There are many girls that struggle with self-image and they even buy the product that the model is selling just to try to be a little bit more like the model. But if you think of this in the economic point of view, this is very good.

Magazines get money from publicity in their pages and then girls want to be like the models and buy their products, and if they fell very motivated they go to the gym, so they buy a membership, then they buy weight loss products and when they are skinnier they buy new clothes so it’s all a market that is connected and from this point of view people feeling like my friend is very good.

But in the health point of view is bad because many persons are affected fiscally and mentally and in extreme cases you can even die. But everything has it bad and good things, it all depends on how you see them.

SEX, SEX, SEX & MORE SEX


Today, when i was watching the superbowl i noticed how everything in publicity is related with SEX. Out of ten comercials, only one do not shows a sexy girl wearing a bikini or showing part of her body. Just think about it, almst all commercial contains a sexual image. Cocacola can't sell his product with out a sexy girl in a red bikin taken the sun in the beach. Most comercials tell you : "buy this and you will have the sexiest girls or boy are your side" or "use this and she or he won0t be able to resist to you" AX comercial ( the deodorant) shows a guy that uses ax and in a second he has 10 women touching him and hounding him. Another good exampel of a deodorant comercial showing a secual image is All Spice a think; i'm taling about the comercial that shouw a very sexy girls dancing in an exotic way and sweting, and then they say : When she sweats is sexy when you do it Not! i mean is that really necessary? What about Hollister, Abecrombie, etc. every single comcercial photo publicity in general, show a very very sexy guy witout a tshirt and wearing his jeans in a very special way.. i mean, come on ¬¬ i little bit more down and it won't be necessary to imagine how does he looks like whenhe is taking a shower ! I think that commercials for food, cars, hygiene products, clothing, etc show MORE secual images than CONDONS COMERCIALS! yes or no ?
Some how i could say that economy is related to sex. I mean, people incharge of making publicity is really inteligent because they know what people like, what people want. What about Megan Fox or Brad Pitt? they are rich because of theire talent, but please don't come and tell me that their super hot bodies have no influence ¬¬ Another good example of how sex is related with economy: Hugh Hefner, the playboy creator. He is millionary just because he sells pictures and movies of naked women ! That's an easy way of winning life ! Not only the fundator is rach, but also the PORNSTARS are rich !


Here some math ecuations:
sex+money= prostitution
sex+money+prostituion+publicity= playboy
sex+money+prostitution+publicity+playboy= sick people!
sex+money+prostitution+publicity+playboy+ sick people= rape
sex+money+prostitution+publicity+playboy+ sick people+ rape+more rape = human traffiking
sex+money+prostitution+publicity+playboy+ sick people+ rape+more rape +human traffiking = MORE SICK PEOPLE THAT BECOMES RICH THANKS TO SEX!!



As a conclution in 2010 economy is equal to sex ! NOT COOL AT ALL !
