Mojo I would say that my sexual body image is better now at 42 with all the accompanying minor sags, ripples, varicosities, wrinkles, gray hairs etc. etc etc. LOL than when I was 16 and really had an objectively excellent body......Not perfect but mine and a wonderful gift from the goddess that I shouldn't neglect I like that attitude ^5. WTG.
A form that functions as more than a form. A form that functions well is more valuable than a form that looks good but functions with reservations IMO
Mrs. Cac I am very grateful that I have a son The adds cut two ways.
Look for adds with Thin women and bumbling men. How many adds are there where the men fumble around with a work project and a thin woman comes in and does the work in a jiffy and she does it with out much effort!
Raise your son so he knows this isn't reality, or he might compare himself/his own actions with the competent women in the adds.
Most of the strong, competent men in adds are associated with cleaning products, or security alarms.
NASCAR had some good, “men that liked to drive fast” adds but that can be taken too far.
Other adds that feature men jumping high and other super power feats, also can get some boys to think, "why can't I do that."
I remember when apple juice marked to mother’s of babies, did not contain any apple juice. The companies sold lots of product.
At one time Gerber Grow -up Life Insurance was sold but the actual insurance company wasn’t Gerber. t Another company was the actual insurer and Gerber doubled their price and did the marketing.
My point is, marketing plans sells us things/ideas that are not true or realistic. Fad diets or a Ford VS a Lincoln. Same frame, engine, transmission, just different trim.
