week 4 eoc: women in advertising

women in the advertising and in the ads back in the day were treated like lower class citizens.women in the work place had no say and when they did it was looked down upon. getting equal opportunity in the work place for women was an up hill battle and still today we ares till not taken completely seriously.but women in the ads was at the same low point if not worse back in the day but over time it became better and ads showed women being respected but lately women in ads have been on the down fall again. some ads with or towards women are completely disrespectful not only towered women, but women are willing to be seen this way by the public eye.  "While the flirtatious flight attendants were grounded years ago and the stereotypical housewife ads have been put out with the trash, women, in many cases, are still portrayed simply as sex objects."
