Junod, Tom. “My Mom Couldn’t Cook.” Esquire 154.2 (Sept. 2010):152-153. Print.
Iv’ been researching GQ’s magazine, and I’ve pick a few issues to show how propaganda is pull more towards how man should look and what is the more trendy attire to wear for each season not only that is even gives you tips on what kind of hair look you should go for. The articles in each of the magazines I have picked give a very point plain outlook on what should be worn for the season in a very convincing argument.
On January 27, 2010, GQ posted an article called “Make This Year a Perfect ‘10” in it heading was “A GQ 10-point plan for manhandling the year ahead-in high style” the article goes on by giving a list of do’s and don’ts. One of the thing I came across was the list of different ways famous people have their hair and how they like it, it’s basically a recommendation list of what types of hair styles men should vote for that would keep their masculinity in tack without really going to extreme ways to try and get them. The site is posted so if you’re a guy and want to look good without sacrificing your masculinity, than this is the advertisement for you.

MY "OUTLINE"
Thesis: Subliminal messages in our every day media
Topic1: What we view as harmless is nothing less than one of the most blunt way to let us know how much we’ve really change our stands in everyday living over the years.
● Many different kinds of advertisement but all with the same concept.
● The “dynamic” perspectives the media takes too send out the same message.
Topic2: How tradition/custom affect gender roles in simple thing like posing in a picture.
● The way males pose Vs female posing.
● The “do’s and don’ts ” “may and may not’s”
Topic3: Sweetly coated lies we tell our self’s too make everything just a bit more bearable.
● The unrealistic pictures meant too symbols the guide lines and standers we live by.

my outline
Paper #1 Outline
In today’s society men are pressured to live up to certain expectations, such requirements are what moles them and helps them become what the ideal male figure is. Simple thing like from the way they sit to the kind of jobs and pass times they are allowed to have are subliminally passed on to them by the media and the everyday life that surrounds them. In my advertisement the caption itself says a lot “You can wait for luck to find you or you can make your own” it goes on by saying “Find your luck at Caesars, book your stay today.” But the picture itself says 1,000 words.
If we take a step back for a minute and look around at the advertisements we’ll see that the male figure is always posing in a “caught me doing something” pose and if there are any female in the advertisement we’ll see that they are mostly sitting around standing up or just looking pretty for the viewers to glace upon it’s as if female roles are not important enough as male roles that even in simple advertisement sexism is in the propaganda. In my ad the guys are playing a game of poker and the females are sitting around are standing just looking at the guys play. The rest of the ad has a female laying in bed with very few clothes on and a bunch of gifts on top of her.
From first look it may just seem like nothing but if you think about it you never see any ad where the male figure is laying in bed top less with all the gifts on top of him in a very sexual pose, you won’t even find advertisements in which a casino has females playing poker and the men all around them as if they were the good luck charms. What you will find is females being showered in gifts by men the ad will normally have them coming out or walking into a very prestigious store and the male models will be paying for everything with a facial expression of “money is not a problem for me” and the female models will have the expression of “OMG ! He is such a good guy because he has money and can buy me things”. The reality is that in today’s world men and women both can work and buy themselves what they’d like all it takes it a little bit of effort in per suing what one wants for him or herself.
The over look or view that society has on how things are not very accurate. The message they send out about female is that they only like men with money, and all men should be able to buy females gifts and that how the magic between sexes works. But what happens to the men that don’t have money and the females that don’t fall for the money bags are they living a wrong life style. I guess the advertisement company’s don’t think people can live a life out of the common believe of what is and is not the right way to live. Maybe if the advertisement company’s display a more realistic outlook on what really happens on a day to day bases there sales won’t be so high so the illusion of a utopian society fills up the minds of the buyers because it sounds more believe just like fairy tales and unicorns such things don’t exist but the harsh reality is too much for some people to handle that they hide behind an idea an illusion.
We can change the world from such guide lines by changeing the way we do things today. This is a cause that will not only help us but it will allow us to better our self's and our futures by the small baby steps we embrace today. By breaking the chain's that has been passed on to us by our fore fathers will learn how to value people for who and what they really are it's small steps like this that will set the path for equality and a more suitable enviorment rather than a hostile habitat that will only make things worst in the long run, it's not that difficult to preside the wrong that might happen, all we have to do is look back into the lives of people before us and our time to see what extreme conditions people were willing and are willing to go to all because of lack of education.

First Draft/ Blog Post #3: Friday, Oct. 1, 2010
in todays world we can see right about anything and everything thanks to the media we can update our selfs on what are the lates looks and what we should or should not look like thanks to this kind of mentality we have made a world in which some out looks are viewed as traditional and these tradtions are not to be crossed nor changed some things as simple as life roles are in modleing men are also portrayed as pillers of the picture meaing the world revols around them and it's men who have the bigger inpack on viwers with what there roles are rather than a female, something simple as my ad for the class. the ad is for a casino it has 3 pictures 2 small one's and 1 big one the main pictuer is about a group of
