U.N. Internet Ad

A friend actually posted this link on my Facebook wall this week, which was surprising considering I wouldn't exactly call him a feminist...but I thought I'd share it with you all!

The title of this article is called "What the internet thinks of women", but I actually think that it's less of what the internet thinks, and more of a reflection on what the world thinks of women. I loved how this was a campaign done by the UN, it's important that global institutions address the gender gap not only in countries like America, but in all places around the world. The ad was really effective in the way that it included all different kinds of women, and how it showed what the world really thinks about them. I loved how the UN put messages about what we SHOULD be thinking at the bottom too, it was a great way to spread the word about equality for women! Lemme know what y'all think.

  1. I really like this ad campaign. Not only is it startling but it's factual. And I agree with you about this being a reflection of the world, not just the internet!
