Reebox Tone Toning Shoes

After learning about how girls are not respected in the media, i saw a video that relates a lot to what we talked about in class. Reebok came out with these shoes called Reebok tone toning shoes. The shoes are suppose to help you tone and burn your legs but in the commercial they talk about making your butt bigger. As the girl is explaining that to the camera man, the camera man is aiming at her butt. This is like what we talked about how girls are portrayed in the media.

  1. Jimmy good example of how women are portrayed to be all about looks and body type! I don't get why they would make a commercial like this to sell shoes, and the sad thing is.. People are going to believe it!

  2. Haha, that's terrible. And today in society, we accept this as normal. The media is constantly using woman to sell something. The funny thing is that no know will remember what the girl was actually saying during the commercial!
