Its beginning to look a lot like…

November 30, 2007 - 12:16 pm

….that pagan holiday where we consume ceremonial depictions of men, in ginger, to celebrate the tauroctony. I love December 25th! You non-classics majors may have another use for that day.

It doesn’t take a genius (good thing!) to see the heavy-handed marketing aimed at children, who already see 40,000 advertisments a year and have a difficult time differentiating between advertising and media content. Speaking of which, I am a big fan of the Commercial Free Childhood.  Nonetheless, it is heartwarming (dare I say that, since ’tis the season for heartwarming acts?) to know that other people share my abject horreur of the Bratz phenomenon. Best of all, that post lead me to a great op-ed on the Bratz movie, which is really about all movies aimed at pre-teen girls, and how those movies all have the same elements, and virtually interchangeable frames.

 If you think the sexualization of little girls via marketing isn’t really a problem in America, well…can you tell me how the marketing goals of these two images differ?
