	is this perfume ad too suggestive for teen magazines? what do you think about this racy gucci ad? what do you think about these joke ads based on those used by victoria secrets? do you think these jean ads are too racy for teen magazines? do you buy these bust enhancing ads? how do you feel about this peta ad that focuses on body image? do you think the barbie reference in this ad is creepy or clever? does this underwear ad objectify men? do you think it's okay for models to be as skinny as in this ad?



	do you think the barbie reference in this ad is creepy or clever? an ad for Moschino jeans, copyright 2001. Barbie dolls, with their unrealistically shaped bodies, are often accused of perpetrating unhealthy body ideals in young girls. This ad uses Barbie's signature packaging to sell jeans. Do you think it is a clever comment on fashion advertising or on the world's most famous doll? Or is the idea of portraying a real woman as a doll in order to sell clothes demeaning?
