Evaluate Magazines

While in line at a grocery store, I see myself staring at these magazines, wondering why everything have to be airbrushed. People should be natural. I feel as though these magazines are sending a negative message to our audience and I feel as though its not right and it should be limits to what to expose.

     In this one magazine, there was this young lady who had on a short skirt with coupons attached to it with big boobs busting out the shirt. In every magazines they are targeting a particular crowd. In this case this magazine was targeting the males. These images are not realistic, they are negative. The message to the female is that you have to look like this to be acceptable or acknowledge in this society. I think these magazines make it hard for men and women to be theirself because they are worrying about trying to impress the other. Most of the magazines are sex sell magazines and it most definitely do. A lot of guys are presented as this big muscular person, and most of the time they are advertise as working men, with nice care and great jobs. A lot of females are presented as housewives, secretary and caretaker. In some of the ads women are advertised as being sexy. I feel as though that these are stereotypes of what men and women do or should do. I do not look at magazines, I feel as though its all false. The reason why people purchase magazine because they find it fulfilling and interesting.
