Women as drapery. I'm sure you've seen them, women draped along the car in the flashy magazine ad. Women draped over some guy drinking from the right beer bottle. Women draped over or under or alongside something or other being promoted as sexy, desirable and necessary for any guy wanting to be a chick magnet.
At this point I'm not even sure why I started writing about this. I know I had a good idea in here somewhere.
Do women look sexy as drapery? Is it our roundness, our curviness that sells us? I don't see women drapery as selling the product in the ad, I see it as selling women. Making women sexy, making them sellable, making them kind of cheap, easy and glamourous.
They look so lazy in those glossy pictures. As if they have nothing to do but mold their bodies to their environment. Are they waiting for something or is this just how they choose to spend their days? Are they bored? Do they care?
Are they necessary? I don't think so. But, they catch the eye. Whether you are male or female you do check out that babe in the ad. Not for the same reasons. I tend to look at their clothes, how red their lipstick is and how sensual their hair seems. Men, likely think along different lines.
I have no real point. Just something pointless I thought of tonight. Kind of like draped women, no point, just a gimmick to make you look.
