Abstract
The consensus of today’s world is a world of sex. Yet, magazines consensus for the teens of today see that body image in magazines is how a female should look. With magazines that portray young, thin, models are causing the young girls to mutilate themselves by starving to be thin. As this paper shows that the majority of teen magazines have hidden pitfalls. When an article, in a magazine explains how in detail, to get around the loopholes on how to rape a female who is intoxicated, should outrage everyone. However, the world has become placate to the bevy of advertising companies. No longer should we placate to the marketing world, but reminiscence in how things were sold in the past.
The Corruption of the Youth today in magazines
Article one for review is from the June 20, 2012 addition of Men’s Health.
Title of article: 5 Best Sex Positions every Man should try. The article was easily accessed by just looking at the rack in the supermarket, and could have been seen by anyone, of any age. The target audience is from male teens to men, to improve their sex life. The article shows a very young couple, in late teens to early 20’s, without any clothes on, and only a bed sheet to cover the female breast area.
Pornography: The article suggestively simulates that the couple is having sexual intercourse. The female is sitting facing the male, with both arms wrapped around him, with head tilted back. The male is seen kissing the females neck, with one arm on her back, and one hand cupping her head. The article used explicated wording to describe how to assume the position the couple was in, using words that would imply that the couple was in the middle of sexual intercourse.
Sexual wording highly indicates that the male partner is in complete control of the female. Although, throughout the article showed multiple sexual positions
