I was particularly interested in the Kilbourne article about women this week. It got me thinking a lot about advertising, since it discussed women and advertising a lot, and I wanted to share another example of an advertisement that portrays men and women differently. In the article Kilbourne gives several examples of advertisements geared towards women, and a few about how these ads differently portray men and women, especially when it comes to weight loss.

This link is another example of how women and men are differently portrayed and how weight loss is seen as essential for women and not men in most cases.
