The context of this image is made to open the eyes to people in order to see the reality of our media today. The description says: 'It's not acceptable to treat a woman like one.' This campaign is against domestic violence with women. It creates the realization that both animals and women are treated as objects to hurt, even going as far as murder for the animal. By saying it's not ok to treat a woman like one, it makes you question why an animal, who are innocent by nature, deserves the treatment as well. By only portraying the body of the women and cow, it takes away any identity from them, and furthers the issue of sexualization. Carol Adams uses this to prove her case of the Sexual Politics of Meat. ]]> 2020-10-08 01:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/812382582 mont2551 https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/812399059 This image is of a newspaper comic of two chickens talking. In it one says to the other: 'I'm running around like a working single Mother.' This idea plays on the phrase, 'running like chickens' because chickens often have no sense of purpose or direction. By portraying the chickens as single, working Mothers, it is directly calling them out as being aimless and dumb. The attended audience was for mainly males who do not understand the role, and assume because it's working with children that it is somehow pointless and simple. Comics like these are common, and add to the idea that woman are just in society to do the 'easy work' of child birth. These ideas create a toxic masculinity. It also adds to the fact that in order to appear manly, you must put down someone else first, most often women or feminized ideas. These subtle images are placed everywhere in our society, and puts the ideas of objectification into our heads from a young age. ]]> 2020-10-08 02:02:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/812399059 https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/814769445 In this example, a turkey is being portrayed as a woman. The turkey is positioned to resemble a woman as well as having a bikini outline. This portrayal emphasizes the objectification of both women and animals. This image is used to show how women are presented as objects. By placing higher value on the breast, thigh, and leg the sexualization and objectification of women is highlighted. This example of objectification shows how people think of women as no more than objects. It also emphasizes the idea that animals are no more than food. Similar to women in this example, the turkey is only valued for its benefit to men and is not seen as a living being.

By presenting the pig as a woman, women are being objectified. The women are once again being viewed as an object or a piece of meat for the men. In this example, a woman is being sexualized as an animal in order to sell. The stance of the pig and the slogan being used add to the sexualization of women. This example questions what women are valued for. In this photo, they are only seen to be valuable as objects. ]]> 2020-10-08 18:08:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/814923640 mont2551 https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/832220735 In this image, it shows a scene from the famous movie, Lady and the Tramp. Though seemingly innocent, it shows the idea that the Lady, an animal, in a very feminine setting. As this movie is directed towards children, it puts the idea that women and animals are one in the same from an early age. With the characteristics of being 'lady-like' and feminine, it stereotypes women and puts traits characterized as weaker on an animal. Though this example is not as dramatic as most, it still points to the larger picture of women being shown as animals in media. ]]> 2020-10-15 13:27:56 UTC https://padlet.com/mont2551/l969r40dv32caly5/wish/832220735
