Don’t Measure A Woman’s Worth By Her Clothes

257

ADVERTISEMENT

A brilliant ad campaign created for Terre Des Femmes, a Swiss human rights organization focusing on gender equality and feminism, reminds us that the worth of a woman should never be measured by something like the neckline of her blouse or height of her heels.

To some, heels of a certain height or skirts of a certain length denote that the wearer must be promiscuous. These “measuring sticks,” however, show just how absurd these measurements seem when removed from their context – regardless of what you think about someone’s clothes, the person wearing them is still a person and should be treated as such.

The ad was design by Theresa Wlokka (art director), Frida Regeheim (copywriter), and other students at the Miami Ad School in Hamburg, Germany.

    There is a beast with heart of cold stone that dashes like lightning, shreds flesh from bone. // Bewitched by this beast, I fell to my knees. My mouth babbled madness and mumbled soft pleas. // I stared down the ravenous, gnashing dark maw of a cute cuddly kitten with yarn in its paw

    it seems like no matter what you wear or how you wear it, it's wrong

    Welcome to the reason we need feminism. What we wear, how we act, what we like or don't like--Society is always telling us we're wrong.

    As long as humans judges other by their appearance this will be continuous. We are imperfect and disgusting beings.

    I don't judge by clothing, but if you really put on slutty clothing then that means something to me.

    If people could only see the impact of labeling on someone specially to a woman.

    Especially to women? Perhaps one who is sensitive. Society judges men also, which there are sensitive men who too get impacted by these.

    Feminism isn't against men, it's against the mistreatment of women by society. Society = men and women.

    they really can't tell people what not to think because that is trying to censor personal opinions...

    So I like boring necklines, slutty skirts and prudish shoes. Neither of these are wrong at all for me ^^ I'm sure others like different things. So nothing is inherently wrong. I am allowed to dislike tall shoes anyway right?
