Ad executive Madonna Badger created a new video “We Are#‎WomenNotObjects” to raise awareness about ads that objectify women.

Badger, a well-known ad executive who lost her three young daughters and parents on Christmas morning in 2011 when Ms. Badger’s 19th-century Victorian home in Connecticut caught fire.

In an effort to honor her children, Ms. Badger says she is trying to shine a light on how this type of sexist advertising is harmful to young women and can undermine their self-esteem and self-confidence.

    Hi Jeannie, I watched a great Ted talk by Gail Dines called “Growing up in a pornified culture”. It explains how our culture trains girls from a young age that they have two options; to be f*ckable or invisible. It was quite eye opening in regards to self-objectification.

    I honestly have never understood why women in these ads are so willing to objectify themselves—and by extension—other women.
    Do they think so little of themselves and their sex? Or are they in it solely for the money.
