[quote]Food companies are showing products that can never be deliveredby any of their locations. What is actually being shown isn't even food. It's an almagamation of non-edible if not outright poisonous or toxic products that look good under bright photography lights. [/quote] I don't know about you, but my McNuggets looks exactly like what they do when they advertise them. [quote]Beer companies imply that simply cracking open one of their products results in an instant party no matter where you are. If not good times and a party then they sell sex. [/quote] That comes from the fact that most parties have beer and some sex comes from drinking beer. [quote]Photographs of women everywhere, for use in cosmetics ads, magazines, everywhere, as shown above, are photoshopped to make them more "appealing." Even "real" photos of celebrities aren't real. They're taken and photoshopped before being turned loose to the media. [u]In turn it's giving women everywhere body issues because they don't look right, leading to anorexia, bulemia, and at least anxiety and self esteem issues because they don't look "right." Hell, the above is even starting to effect men because they aren't the muscular, beef He-Men portrayed in media.[/u] [/quote] That's a problem with people's own self image. Granted I'm no Adonis, I don't need to tell my self I need to look like Leonardo DeCaprio to look attractive. What is with people and not taking personal responsibility? Why must someone always cry to big daddy authority cause they weren't smart enough to not let themselves get deceived? It's common sense that McDonald's burgers don't always look appealing, so don't -blam!-ing eat there, no one is forcing you to buy a certain quota of burgers from them every month. You decided to watch their ads, you decided to go to them, and you decided to buy their products. face it, you have no one to blame but yourself for encouraging this behavior.
