#Hunkvertising: The Objectification of Men in Advertising (AdWeek) #Advertising #Men #Diversity #OldSpice

Call it hunkvertising. The objectification of men in advertising (as with women) is not new. Consider icons like the Marlboro Man and Old Spice’s sexy pitchman Isaiah Mustafa. And yet, a disproportionate number of buff, often-shirtless studs are lately popping up in ads for everything from salad dressing to air freshener—in other words, consumer products not normally associated with sexual imagery.

‘Unnecessary Freshness’ – new ad campaign by Old Spice features NFL players in strange situations that save the day. #branding #advertising

In this new instalment of ads, they have taken down the silliness of the Old Spice man a notch, by pulling new faces from America’s NFL league into the limelight. The new ads feature a theme of ‘Unnecessary Freshness’ and feature these sports stars in strange situations where Old Spice saves the day. A total of four wacky ads have been created.
