Just a recap.
1. David/Danny's group - Gender & Sexuality
Your argument is that sex does sell, and it doesn't really cause negative impact. It will be too assertive to say that. As a matter of fact, I doubt very much. The fact that people like to see sexual images doesn't necessarily mean they like the products, or they will remember them. You need some data to prove this assumption. In terms of social impact, the objectification and dehumanization of women through sexualized imageries should not be overlooked and taken for granted. Think about why the majority of our society is accepting the gender stereotypes of males and females? They have come a long way, you know? to persuade us to take on such ideology that woman is a second sex?
2. Real/Penny/Tung's group - Gender & Sexuality
Good to see that every member had participated.Are you saying that sexualization of the bodies does help in democratizing the gender myth and spreading the influences to closed-minded countries? If open-mindedness implies social acceptance of standardized bodily beauty mostly of a western eye, are we losing our own standard of beauty? Is casual in sex a sign of freedom? or does it lead to other social problems?
3. Chong k/Chi-man/Genie's group - Globalization
Good to see all members had participated.Is it true that anything could be globalized? What is globalization anyway? Is it westernization? Need to have deeper analysis on the core values and practicality before you make your assumption. What will be missing when you say serving Chinese tea in Starbucks? or what is the 'ingredient' of an international language when you say replacing English with Cantonese in event like the BODW forum?
