Group Summary

My group was assigned pages 309-322. An advertisement of a Nokia monitor was being described. The description was that it was classy, bright picture, and colorful. It could show all sorts of textures with great detail. The advertisement used a woman and marketed it to a lot of women. The ad was saying that you could be classy and elegant with the monitor. The text was telling the reader pretty much how everything has changed in advertising and with life in general. Selfe describes that men are allowed to wear more casual and laid back clothes in a business atmosphere and it hasn't changed for women. She gives a feminist point of view in a way.
