Light Williams

This week
the online sun tries to motivate all the fit-January readers to carry on with their
exercising instead of giving up. ``A locker full of stylish gym gear could be
just the boost you need for sticking to your New Year resolutions.´´ is one
sentence their used to motivate us readers. This a advertising article and the
reader response is that they’re going to buy new sport gears hoping that it
would help them to carry on. ``Be the best dressed on the treadmills as LEIGH
WILLIAMS shows you how to go for the burn while looking smokin’ hot.´´. I would
say the target audience for this article were young female reader, because their
care usually more about what their look like. I don’t like it that their aspect
that we have the look hot during we are sweating. In my opinion this is a bad stereotypical
representation of a perfectionistic version of a women. It’s sexist to say that
we have to look hot when we are working out. All the added advertising pictures
are just showing the female model LEIGH WILLIAMS in different generous sport
outfits. The title of the article is `` Fit for a catwalk: Stand out in
stylish gear while you work up a sweat´´ and I think this is for example a
reason why so many young girls get anorexia because the media tells them that
their have to fit in size 0 and look like a model.

This is a very good piece of analysis, as you have effectively adressed audience responses and what the correct target audience for the article is. I also agreed with your viewpoint on the media's representation and stereotype they use of women and you bring up a valid point of what may lead some girls to become anorexic or suffer from the pressure of having to live up to unrealistic standards.
