I Choose this blog because I feel as though the idea of "sex sells" has come to a point where it is getting out of hand. Especially with nationally televised shows and sports events. The viewers of these shows range from young adults to the elderly. Generally commercials focus their attention on a certain group of people, not taking into consideration how a certain commercial may affect a child who may be tuning in. The Super Bowl this year had some of the most provocative commercials i have seen to date. It makes a woman feel as though she is only a sex object, designed to please a man. The topic of nudity is also brought about, even when it comes to M&M commercials. I know that there are also commercials depicting guys in a sexual nature, although they are often depicted as strong men. Woman are often depicted as objects.
