In the first advertisement it shows a picture of a young girls head on a grown womans's body. The caption behind the image of the girl/lady says just because she has the body doesn't mean she has the brain basically says that because she looks old enough doesn't mean she is. The caption at the bottom says that sex with and underaged girl is statutory rape.This add is is meant to show men that under-aged sex is a crime. It also shows the innocents of some of the young girls who are becoming experience to early.

The Second advertisement is from burger king about one of there new sandwiches. The picture shows a the sandwich positioned right in front of a womans mouth. To top that off the caption in the corner says it just tastes better. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know what they are implying here. Yet that still doesn't make up for the fact that the way they are conveying their message is not right

The last advertisement is on for women's Nike running shorts. This ad has no excessive skin showing or any sexual gestures. Instead it has a woman with nice legs who must work out to keep her legs that way. This ad by no means degrades women, it in fact shows women with a good healthy exercise routine, they can have nice looking legs as well. You can tell that positive advertisement is more effective then negative just by the number of women wearing Nike's shorts around campus.

  1. I agree completely! I think the nike shorts ad wasnt trying to be sexual whatsoever! I think it was just trying to imply that a good exercise will eventually bring strong legs according to the picture
