This source is a case study presentation focusing on the Dove #beautybias campaign. The presentation analyzes the Dove ad's portrayal of societal beauty standards for women and how physical appearance influences opportunities and success, contrasting this with male-targeted campaigns that emphasize strength. It further incorporates academic readings on stereotypes by Richard Dyer, exploring their role as an "ordering process" and a "short cut" in how people perceive the world. Additionally, the presentation discusses Elizabeth Stephens' work on "The Normal Body on Display," which examines the historical creation of "normal" body types through statues like Norma and Normman, and how these ideals contribute to the pressure women face to conform to specific appearances. Ultimately, the presentation argues that media reinforces these stereotypes, impacting women's professional lives and highlighting Dove's effort to challenge these ingrained biases.
