Ms magazine is asking readers what they think about this ad for Reebok. Does it glamorize the restrictions placed on women living under extremist Islamic regimes? Or is it trying to turn a spiritual decision, whether or not to cover, into a "come-hither" consumerist moment? Or does it show an image of Islamic women as strong and self-confident? In a related story in the 8/01 issue of Mother Jones called "Behind the Veil", said "Westerners see Iran's mandatory veil as a symbol of repression. But under cover of the hejab, Islamic women have gained more freedom than they - or the fundamentalists - could have imagined." What do you think?

Jim Beam whiskey continues its ads demeaning men. All three ran this month. The first ad shows four men, three of them looking at each other and the fourth guy looking at what looks like a stripper on a pole with the line "Who says men don't like dancing? Real friends. Real bourbon." The second ad shows the same photo run in Australia as "If the chicks ask, we're watching the footy." The third ad is a birthday party with a woman coming out of a giant cake. The headline reads "A picture is worth a thousand words, and these guys will deny every single one. Real friends. Real bourbon." So, the Jim Beam good old boys like drinking', strippers, and being deceitful. Come to think of it, they may be right. |
