Everyone Lies






Q. We watch TV shows without noticing that were been influence by them. Laurie Boloven explains  that American television shows has change over time, even though some things stay the same, there's so many things that change in the culture of television. The best example is when she compares Dr. House a tv series on 2004  and Dr. Kildcare from a TV show on 1960's. The author is trying to compare how people feelings change over time. It also shows that tv shows don't care about peoples feelings anymore and that they have to be cold to complete their job. This made me realize that people aren't the same, they don't care what other feel or think. Is been selfish the new style?

C. While reading this essay, i never though similar TV shows repeated in life. I was also pretty upset that shows aren't the same. Its sad that  they believe been selfish its the new way of judging people. We shouldn't let television influences us by there bad habits. We need to keep in mind its just television and it shouldn't affected the way we see others in our world. We humans "are liar" but that's part our nature. So why should we be judge by another human who believes its better than us.

Find yourself

"Real Beauty"
Q. If a beautiful woman is consider to be "Victoria Secret Model" then what am I consider to be? a disturbing unattractive women? Ads have always pursuit us to find anything that's wrong with our body and spend money just to perfect what society thinks is wrong. Even though Dove's New campaign is inspiring to love ourselves there's still that insecure that doesn't make us feel happy for who we are. Man's are also a huge part in our lives and even though we say we don't need their opinion, there actually the reason we want to look attractive for. So why is it hard for them to see the real us? Why keep comparing us to something we weren't meant to be. 
C. There's nothing wrong on been who you are, but admit it, you don't want to be that unattractive female that no one wants to be. I believe there's nothing wrong on "fixing" some insecure parts of your body. We might not end up looking like the models we see on ads but at least we can enjoy our body's and feel more comfortable naked or wearing a nice bikini outfit on a beautiful beach day.
Hearing man's complain about the Dove's "Real Beauty" made me realize that they shouldn't be blamed. There so used to seen the "unrealistic" slim models that we barely see in our regular days. If man's consider us as an sexual attraction, why can we make them happy and see us as "beautiful people" I'm pleased that Dove's is doing something to bust up are self esteem and love us for who we are but I'm also not against "unrealistic" models. In-perfection is beauty but also remember there's nothing wrong on "fixing" some imperfections. All it matter is that you love yourself and don't pursue yourself to be someone that you'll regret in the future.

"Turn the Tv hunny"

Men's Men and Women's Woman 

Q. If women's are consider to be the desire of men's why don't they put the realistic women on advertising. Advertisement is such a  stereotype creation, that makes woman look weak and sensitive while men's are the owners of a women's choice. It's scary knowing that there's people who know what we want without even asking us. While we watch a game or a soap show a perfect commercial pops out to influence us to buy something we never ever desire for. Advertisers seem to quite willing to manipulate us with fantasies and exploit our anxieties.
C. Learning that theirs 4 different commercials that judge women's and men's makes me understand why people prefer specific things and what influences them to buy. For example on "Men's Men" and "Men's Woman" both commercial shows the empire of a mans desire "A Perfect Woman" a slim, tall, attractive woman that doesn't care her status to man.While on "Women's women" and "Women's Man" it shows  how a woman wishes her man to be. One thing they do share in common is the appearance. All of four want the perfect model or the perfect man. You would never see a fat belly man do a commercial or a short, medium size woman do a commercial with an attractive man. My point is that appreciate would always be the main cause why people want things. Just because an attractive man has a fancy car a regular man would make him get a girl. Or a beautiful woman get all mans, would influence all women's to buy the product because they can get their dream guy. I believe advertising should be a little more realistic and show the actual meaning of "Women's and Men's" but then again nobody would buy things anymore.

Is it True.

 "Brought to you B(u)y"

Q. If advertising is considered to be bad influence for humanity, why are we surrounded all over the place? Television is "The New Way" to impact  Americans to a better future, a different way to see our world and to be satisfied on things we don't need, so why do we keep grumbling about our life's? Not only we complain about our jobs but also make fun of each other. It’s abhorrent how we laugh of each other miserableness to feel better for each other. At the end we desire to have superior jobs like the ones we see on television but deep inside we know that it's just a fantasy that advertising makes us believe.   C. While reading this chapter it made me realizes that people think deeper into their thoughts. For example I never believe while watching "The Office" I was creating an excuse to make fun of others miserableness. Honestly I’m not a huge fan of this show; I never had a bad experience while working at a corporate job. I believe it’s childish to make fun of each other’s gloom. I also believe television needs to stop showing things that aren't happening in real life that's why we have books to fantasy. Over this entire chapter it made me realize that not everyone thinks the same way, while we enjoy others sorrow lives, we don't think that others are going through the same thing that’s why all we can do is cheer them up hoping one day they would have a better day.
