I would like to argue how an ad promotes a stereotype, but I'm not sure which ad I want to look at yet. Looking on the internet I found some ideas...
1. Diet ads promote obese stereotypes/create negative stigmas
2. Cleaning ads that promote sexual stereotypes
3. Lucky Charms commercail promotes Irish stereotypes
4. Barbies promote racial stereotypes
I really like the barbie idea and I think that is what I'm going to go with. I could talk about how barbies give girls an unrealistic image. They are white, blond, and super skinny. Barbie's feet are permanently prepared for high heels. Bratz dolls are another great example of this. They are dressed in mini skirts and anchored at young girls. The barbie dolls are also very racially stereotyped. Theres black barbie, indian barbie, asian barbie etc..
