Tell It Like We See It

This is a great little video made by students at a university in Canada as a class project. My guess is that they were tasked to bring in ads from magazines that stereotyped women in objectified, submissive roles and men in cold, dominating roles. And my guess is that it wasn't difficult. It is shocking when you see these types of ads placed side by side. Even more shocking is when we aren't shocked; when we experience these ads cool or sexy because we're so desensitized to these extreme roles.
