The French magazine Cadeux Vogue uses little girls for
advertising. In the picture it has a girl that appears to be 6 years
old not any older than 10. Her outfit consists of a gold satin fitted dress
with a front breast revealing slit, high heels bigger than 2 inches, and bold
gold necklace. Hair is in an up do, which
makes her appear older. The girl is posing in a seductive way; she is on a bed
with a cheetah print comforter and has two bunnies that surround her. The young
natural girls’ face is over masked with makeup. Make up, expensive jewelry and high
heels all symbolize a superficial concept to young girls. All children are beautiful.
Little girls do not need to use make up to cover sleep bags, wrinkles, pimples,
or uneven skin. The message that is sold here is that materialistic makes a “lady,”
or in this case makes a “girl” beautiful. Young girls are surrounded by unnatural beauty
.They believe at an early age that makeup, revealing clothing and provocative
poses are anticipated moments of much importance in their life. What are the
values being sold for little girls?
I must agree with you. In our generation media, powerful people, celebrities, and magazines all create a specific image for society. We all have to be fake, plastic, 90 lbs people with skanky looking clothes to be what society wants us to be. In reality this has caused so many issues for our generation so many problems like skin cancer caused by tooo much tanning, anorexia from girls thinking there's a certain weight they have to be in order to feel beautiful and be accepted. Can't forget plastic fake stuff like fake boobs in order to get that seductive appearance since having big boobs is in, when in reality it leads to major issues caused by infection or the body rejecting it. All of these issues happening to our generation just because society decided to set a certain image. Think about this: Do we really want future generations that are fake and unhealthy and completely brain washed?
