Magazine
So I'm in the middle of this project for interp right now that is sort of our final project for the feminist unit. The project is a collection of adverstisements from magazines that use stereotypes or sex appeal to sell their products and our comments on these ads. When I looked through the magazines and found so many examples of these kinds of ads I thought
I can't believe how much money advertisers make by objectifying men and women Then I thought
hey, I should try that! So I decided to make my own magazine. I've included a little sample below of some of the headlines of stories that will go in my magazine. I want to really inspire people and make them feel good about themselves, like a lot of fashion magazines do. So check out my headlines!
LIB (that's the name of the magazine)
"Why Are You So Ugly? See page 50"
"There's Something Wrong With You, 50 Tips and Products to Help You Fix It, Page 321"
"Which Handbag Best Describes You? Take the Quiz, Page 156"
"How To Get High Self Esteem, For Under $250! See Page 100"
So that's the basic idea of my magazine. I think it'll be really good for women. This feminist unit has really taught me a lot!
