Sex, Stereotypes and Beauty

[aesmael]

    lost_angelwings showed me this presentation. It puts me in mind of a recent idea I had - to count advertisement images encountered each day featuring sexualised portrayals of women versus the number showing men in a similar manner.

    It took a while to load for me.

A starting point might be the local Gay newspaper (which only works if you're in/near a major urban centre). For example here in Vancouver we have Xtra West which comes out once or twice a week.

A quick non-scientific look at the ads on their website seems to support the hypothesis of objectified men.
