ALEKSANDER XHUVANI GENDER STUDIES: November 2018

Lady Gaga was honored as one of ELLE’s Women in Hollywood. In her riveting acceptance speech at this year's event, Gaga opened up about her sexual assault, mental illness, and a plea for women to lift up each other’s voices and “beckon the world towards kindness.” “I wanted to take the power back,” she said.

Stupid "tradition"

During they wedding day, the groom slaps the bride to show up his masculinity and make it clear that he is the "ruler" and the wife is his "property". Everything is weird in this video, but I want to mentioned these little girls cheering and clapping. They got a lesson that day: The most beautiful day of their life is going to end with a slap in the face due to a stupid masculine tradition.

Advertisments use woman's body

Advertising, marketing and the fashion industry have used woman's bodies to achieve their own purposes and to benefit from their products. In this picutre the woman's body is used to attract the attention of the people to buy it. It is an advertisment that uses female as a symbol of purenees, clearness and to show that only women take care of the housechores such as washing the clothes. Why hadn't they put a men on it ?!

Are you beach body ready?

The ad features a fair-haired and fair-skinned woman in a bright yellow bikini. Her hair is long and lush, her lips full, and her waist is tiny. Next to her is the simple question: Are you beach body ready?
The question is almost immediately followed by the introduction of “the weight loss collection”.

Asking for the men’s opinions what they feel when they look at this ad: Eduardo Brandt, a 28-year-old lawyer in New York, said he didn’t feel offended by the ad because he was a man, but he realized women may be offended.
His friend Federico Rodriguez, a lawyer, 30, said he was so used to seeing near-naked women on billboards, he hardly noticed them anymore. “You become immune,” he said. “I fell bad for a women who believe that she needs to reach that standard to be happy”.

Discriminatory advertising for the female body. Just to sell their products. Probably not a priority for everyone to have a "beach body" (by the way, what's this?) And making someone feel guilty by asking personally, have gone too far.

“BODY by Victoria- All you see is curves”.

The above advertisement for the famous lingerie store, Victoria’s Secret idealizes the physical attribute of both thinness and body shape.
Victoria’s Secret always seems to have the thinnest models to represent their brand and many women will tell that if they are not as thin as the models they typically cannot find anything that fits them at Victoria’s Secret.
The ad is misleading to both young girls and woman who idealize with such advertisements in regards to their body image and shape. It is unfortunate that woman look up to such unrealistic models for their body image and shape in hopes of being thin.

You're more beautiful than you think

This post is different from the previous ones because it shows the other part of media and advertisement towards women's bodies; the part that uses its influence to spread a positive message to all the women having insecurities about themselves.Women of different backgrounds have their portraits drawn by Gil Zamora, a professional composite artist.He asks them to describe their looks and the descriptions for themselves are filled with a lot of low self-esteem,whereas their descriptions for one another are very positive.This is why both sketches of one person were different; one was older, with wrinkles and freckles and the other one is just beautiful.Generally, our self perceptions are harsh and we have to realize that is not the way the world sees us.We think of ourselves as less than we are but others see us in our true wonderful form. I thought this was worth posting because all of us girls can find ourselves in this video and in my opinion it is very uplifting.

Cars "VS" Women

Nissan's campaign can generate a lot of discussion because of the way it wants to attract the customer. A woman in her lingerie, posing sexy and being provocative has nothing to do with the car model and a lot with men who are willing to buy that car just because of her and the sexy ad.We often hear men compare the new expensive car they bought with a tall, big-breast/butt woman and even name it after this type of woman.This car company's aim is very obvious and they sure do know how to drag the customers' attention.

The Objectification of Women in Advertising

Why does every magazine have on the cover the girl with the perfect body?

It’s has happened from the very first new magazine , newspaper, cover of a book , a commercial of a product and almost every aspect that media include. Why all these girls or women must meet some criteria like length, beauty or elegance? There is also a message being sent that it is important to be seen in this way and that to be beautiful is also to be youthful looking. WHY MEDIA PHOTOSHOP ALL THE PICTURES OF EVERY GIRL OR WOMAN THAT THEY CHOOSE FOR THEIR COVER?

Why do they modify the photos to achieve perfection, thereby fading the natural beauty of human beings? All these perfect images focus the viewer as how the magazine would like us to see her: she has a fabulous body, she is presented as being their idea of ‘beauty’ and is helping to sell clothing or whatever, that we should desire. This phenomenon occurs for one reason. Media uses women as an object to increase visibility, to increase purchases (in case of a product) thus increasing their earnings and archiving their goals on being the most famous and popular. They focus on young models and celebrity’s on their cover and instead focus on the fact that women can be beautiful at any age and any possible way.

Here is a women that symbolize "The prefect body" with curvy doll shapes. It is a portrait of an clothes atelier. This can have serious effect on the self-esteen of women and girls worldwide. It presents of adult beauty that not every girl could achieve.

In this advertisement women's are treated like things and their bodies are object and sexual objects. Luxury brands use the bodies of women to sell their products and women's are marketing object.

How Women Are Portrayed in Media: Do You See Progress

Has the way women are represented in media (movies, television shows, ads, newscasts, and talk shows) improved in the last decade?
The documentary Miss Representation, produced in 2011 by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, had a huge impact on me and many others. The film reveals and attacks the negative and limiting images of girls and women, particularly in media. It attacks the objectification of women in ads. It demonstrates the differences in the nature of comments about women vs. men news reporters and political candidates. Siebel Newsom later founded and leads The Representation Project with the goal of eliminating gender stereotypes of both girls and boys.
Another organization focused on changing stereotypical views of women was The White House Project. And it brought pressure on television and cable networks to invite women to appear as experts on news and talk shows. The Project celebrated the television series, Commander in Chief, which featured a woman President of the U.S. and (sadly) had a short run. Ms. Wilson now leads The Women’s Media Center, which trains women and girls to be “media savvy,” promotes media content by women writers and monitors and exposes “media sexism.” Another organization, The Women’s Media Center, trains women and girls to be “media savvy,” promotes media content by women writers and monitors and exposes “media sexism.”

Bikini Car Wash

"Only sexy girls can provide the best car wash."
As you can see in the picture, there are two young women who are attracting costumers, especially the male gender.

In this picture, is a young women with a perfect body who is washing a red car which looks expensive.

Bikini car wash for my opinion attract men to wash their cars.

In this way the owners of car wash can increase their incomes in a fast way.

The Objectification of Women in Advertising

https://www.thebalancecareers.com/advertising-women-and-objectification-38754<br>

Since the introduction of advertising many centuries ago, women have been objectified, and in some instances, insulted or degraded.

The Ideal Woman as Portrayed in Advertising

Advertising, marketing, and the fashion industry have created a new type of woman who does not exist in the real world. You probably know the "Barbie Doll" look, but let's look at some of her main features:
1. She has no wrinkles, blemishes, or scars, and her skin is perfect.
2. She has impossibly long, smooth, and shapely legs.
3. Her waist so small it's as though you could break her in two.
4. Her teeth are beyond white, perfectly straight, and appear unreal.

What Men and Women Are Taught to Desire

At a very early age, men are programmed to desire the Barbie Doll woman. This is the woman featured in ads for perfumes and lingerie.
Women from the same early age, are told they must look like this woman. They should aim to have those long legs, that perfect skin, beautiful hair, and incredible body.
Here's the problem; that woman does not exist, anywhere.
She is the product of hours in the makeup chair and days of photo retouching, even if she's a supermodel. Her waist is not that skinny because no woman with a 23" waist wears a D-cup bra without the aid of implants. Every woman has imperfections in her skin because every woman is human.

What Advertising Is Really Selling

Advertising's main function is to create a need so that a company can provide a product or service to meet that need. For example, men drink certain brands of beer because they associate them with advertising's impossibly perfect (and highly sexy) women. "If I drink that beer, I'll get that woman."

Women and advertisment

Since the introduction of advertising many centuries ago, women have been objectified, and in some instances, insulted or degraded.

Advertising, marketing, and the fashion industry have created a new type of woman who does not exist in the real world. You probably know the "Barbie Doll" look, but let's look at some of her main features: She has no wrinkles, blemishes, or scars, and her skin is perfect. She has impossibly long, smooth, and shapely legs. Her waist so small it's as though you could break her in two. Her ample breasts and buttocks are gravity-defying miracles. Her eyes are dazzlingly bright. Her teeth are beyond white, perfectly straight, and appear unreal.
Men are taught (programmed) to view women as objects.
In the photo below we can see a women and a burger so my question is: Do you think that they have any relation with each other ,or it's done only to buy this burger?

Monday, 19 November 2018

For several years women figure is misused by advertisements and social media. This picture conveys the message that women are destined to serve the man and to be humiliated during all their lives. They have no rights in this world. They just listen and enforce orders.

Why industries choose women in an advertisment that is related with the Irish Rugby rather than men? Because women are more attractive than men. Of course, advertising, marketing, and the fashion industry have created a new type of woman who does not exist in the real world.
As you can see at the picture the woman who is supposed a rugby player,she attracts the major with her body,the make up and surely her posture. So, we can say that men(and women too) are not staring just at the attractive woman but at the product too. In this case, the woman gives a message with her look to the customers to buy the product that she is advertising. And in this way, industries become rich every day with the woman's "perfection".

Women and advertisements.

A perfect body= the perfect drink

As it seems in the picture a woman is exposing her perfect body to attract people to buy this kind of drink. Different companies use this method to have their advertisement more interesting and attractive. To attract boys and especially young girls who want to have the perfect body as the woman in the picture and this is only to increase the popularity of the drink.

We are women and we can do it. We can work as man does, we have the right skills to possess a profession, and we are powerful enough to be the leaders, to manage every situation in a proper way. This is the meaning of this advertisement, to show that we are equal with man; there is nothing we can’t do but we can do it perfectly.

women and advertisements

As it is shown in those pictures the women are exposing their bodies in order to promote the products that the customers would like to buy. Different companies are using the women's images in order to sell their products and having benefits from them. So different companies have decided to make advertisements more attractive or to sound much more interesting to the customers by using women’s bodies, without showing interest in the way they represent women. They represent them as a sexual object only to attract people, especially men. There are lots of ways to promote a product. Why do we have to use women’s bodies in advertisements?

Mechanism of Gender Equality in Albania

- Commission for health, labour and social issues – is a commission within the Parliament of Albania handling,
mongst the others, also the issues of gender equality.
- Department of Social Inclusion Policies and Gender Equality (DSIPGE) – is a Department at the Ministry of
Social Welfare and Youth. This Ministry is the responsible government body for promotion of gender equality
in Albania. DSIPGE is a structural part of the Ministry, originally (in 2006) vested with the tasks of formulating
and development of policies for gender equality and reduction of domestic violence. Currently, DSIGE
mandate is to mainstream programs of social inclusions with gender equality.
- National Council of Gender Equality – is an advisory body for gender equality established by order of Prime
Minister 3/2009 pursuant to Law no 9970/2008. The Minister of Social Welfare and Youth leads the Council in
his quality as the chairman. This national advisory body is composed by 9 vice ministers’ dhe 3 represatives of
civil society. This council provides relevant opinions and recommendations on approval of legal and sublegal
acts on gender equality, various reports on monitoring gender equality application and gender based violence;
in addition, such structure gives recommendations to be taken into considerations by local and central
institutions during exercition of their tasks on promotion and protection of gender equality and fights against
domestic violence.
- Commissioner for the Protection against discrimination (CPD) - CPD was created in accordance with the Law
“On the protection from discrimination”, as an independent institution which ensures the effective protection
from discrimination and any other form of behavior that incites discrimination as provided by specific law. CPD
is responsible to examinate the complaints of subjects which claim to have been victims of discriminatory
behaviors, both from the public administration and from private subjects. In addition, the Commissioner
undertakes administrative investigations after receiving information for violation of the discrimination law, and
performs monitoring of law enforcement. CPD issues recommendations that should be executed by private
and public subjects, otherwise sanctions are applied as provided by law. Notwithstanding, the sanctions, CPD
may oblige the subjects to undertake actions for informing and raising the awareness of the community, public
administration bodies and private entities, to promote the principle of equality and non-discrimination.
- Referral mechanisms – are gender employees in local and central bodies established pursuant to law on
gender equality. Gender employees are civil servants educated with gender issues and principles, gender
budgeting, gender equality laws etc. They exercise their functions in any local and central unit of public
administration. Up to september 2013, only three ministries had appointed gender employees; all other
ministries have focal point on gender issues; only in 17 units of local authorities there are offices for gender
equality; in 46 other local units focal point on gender issues are established.
- Ombudsman – is an institution not listed as a mechanism for gender equality by the public administration
relevant reports. Notwithstanding the fact that gender equality legal framework does not provide specific tasks
for Ombudsman, taking into consideration that i) the tasks conferred by law to the Institution for the protection
and promotion of human rights, ii) gender equality is substantial part of human rights, it is in the very
substantial nature of the work of Ombudsman to play an imense role for achieving gender equality in the
country.
In light of the above, it results that in Albania there are some nechanisms for addressing gender inequalities, but
there is no dedicated authority for this purpose, such as a national authority for gender equality, as it is in Portugal33 or in
Croatia.
4. Conclusions
- Albania has an advanced legal framework on gender equality;
- Domestic laws imply international standards for protection of women rights;
- Albania has established mechanisms to address inequalities;
- Gender equality and women empowerment is still a challenge in Albania, especially with regard

Women and advertisements

Here are presented two different concepts of "the perfect body". First picture presents the skinniest and thinnest models, who happen to be the most famous also. So, the impact that these women have in the ordinary girls life is huge. They are very popular and are followed by many girls in social media and everywhere, so they impact on their thoughts about their body image is big. The other picture is closer to reality. Not all girls in this world are thin and in great shape. In my opinion, there is no such thing as "the perfect body". The most important thing is to be healthy(and by this I mean not affected by any disease), and to feel comfortable with the body you have and not to be worried by other people's opinions. Because we do not live for the others but for ourselves.

This picture presents a half- naked woman who advertises a kind of drink. It is clear that she is "dressed" like this in order to attract people to buy that drink, especially men. Also the woman is in "perfect" body shape, as many males think a woman should be.

Women Trafficking. The case of Albania.

A place to pine and suffer, Women Trafficking: The case of Albania.

‘Countries with more gender equality have better economic growth. Companies with more women leaders perform better. Peace agreements that include women are more durable. Parliaments with more women enact more legislation on key social issues such as health, education, anti-discrimination and child support. The evidence is clear: equality for women means progress for all.’ – UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon

When I was asked to write a blog for the 16 Days of Activism my first thought was: this is a numbers game. The 16 Days of Activism Against Gender Violence is an international campaign originating from the first Women’s Global Leadership Institute in 1991.

For me, the symbolic link between violence against women and human rights is nowhere more prevalent than in the global phenomenon of human trafficking; although the correlation doesn’t end there. I felt that writing a blog was a journey; that’s how I viewed The 16 Days Campaign. It is a journey that’s built around a network of significant places and the same can be said for victims of trafficking.

When you run the numbers, VAWG (Violence Against Women and Girls) and Human Trafficking really add up.

Human Trafficking in Persons is ‘the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons, by means of the threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability; [a] person having control over another person, for the purpose of exploitation. It is a series of connected actions with the final purpose being a form of exploitation (such as labour or sexual exploitation).

Human Trafficking is a serious crime and a grave violation of human rights. For those who befall it, exploitation can last anywhere from 16 days to 16 years and beyond.

Globally, trafficking in human beings is a gendered phenomenon with women thought to be victims in more than 80% of trafficking cases. Sexual exploitation is the most prevalent form of trafficking with women constituting 85% of victims.

The Case of Albania

The Balkans, an oft over looked, oft misunderstood region of the world is home to Albania, a country of 3.2 million people. It remains one of the least known countries in Europe yet the number of women seeking asylum and refuge in the EU is increasing year on year. In 2015, Germany alone saw 54,762 applications for asylum (which rejected 99% of their claims).

The Albanian constitution states: ‘All are equal before the law.’ In spite of this, statistically it’s women who are being trafficked from its borders. There are a number of social and economic factors for this, but for numbers sake, I’ll focus on two.

According to the Home Office, in Albania, some 53 percent of women will have experienced domestic violence within the last 12 months.

Many of the women and girls who are trafficked from Albania report fleeing forced marriages, and domestic violence. Domestic violence in Albania is a serious and widespread problem. According to the Home Office, in Albania, some 53 percent of women will have experienced domestic violence within the last 12 months. Violence against women is not only perpetrated by current or former husbands/partners but also parents, brothers, sisters, in-laws, and other relatives.

Albanian society is male dominated and in it women are taught to obey their husbands and accept their submissive roles. Many are married for dowries. Most women are expected to serve their families, bear children and preserve Albanian cultural traditions all from the age of 14. In Albania the age of consent is 14 years old for girls; however, if a girl has not reached sexual maturation by age 14, sexual intercourse is still illegal. Age then, is but a number.

In all societies, cultural attitudes toward male honour serve to justify violence against women. What’s more, you don’t need to be a mathematician to understand that such a justification exacerbates its consequences. A culture that embraces male masterdom over women encourages violence and it also encourages something else: trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation.

This year, 22% of Hestia’s Human Trafficking Service referrals have been Albanian women and children. According to Unicef, the duplicity of domestic violence and human trafficking in Albanian women has meant that in some rural areas of the country 90% of adolescent girls leave secondary school for fear of being kidnapped. Additionally, in their own guidance, a Home Office report found that in Albania close relationships are often used to exploit and control others. There have been numerous incidents where ‘boyfriends’ have groomed women into sexual exploitation.

Sadly, that’s exactly what happened to Hannah:

I went through a very tough time. I was a young victim of human trafficking. I came from a very poor family in Albania. I have two younger sisters, but our father abandoned us and our mother as he really wanted a son. Our mother blamed us for our father leaving. She met a new man but he didn’t like us and we were made to go out and work to survive. I farmed vegetables and sold them on the roadside – that’s how I met my boyfriend. I was 17 and this man promised me a new life in Italy where he said he had family. He said he had a new job waiting and we would get married and have a new life. I thought once we were settled I would bring my sisters over to live with us. Almost as soon as we left the country this man’s attitude towards me changed completely. I was taken to a house, raped repeatedly and forced to work as a prostitute. I was kept against my will with other girls in the basement of a house where an older lady was in charge of preparing us for the brothels. After 5 years I was sold to two Romanian men who arranged to have me trafficked to the UK. I was transported to the UK in the back of a lorry and I decided to escape. I would rather die than face a new nightmare. I lived on the streets in Brixton until a lady helped me by taking me to a police station.

In patriarchal countries like Albania all men have power. For women like Hannah patriarchy, abuse and sexual exploitation are commonplace. She couldn’t turn and face up to violence and exploitation in Albania but we can.

PAY GENDER GAP I have investigated 40 people in my area about the pay gender and the results are: For men Age Payment 18-30 100 € 31-40 150 € 41-50 200€ Average 150€ For women Age Payment 18-30 75 € 31-40 100 € 41-50 125 € Average 100 € As the results said, the women are paid less than men (about 50% more than women). And there is an interesting part of my study that is about men and women over 60 years. Even though they have worked in the same way under the communist region, and everyone said that they all worked in the same way and earned the same ammount of money, let see their pensions. Men Age Payment 60-70 130 € 71-80 140 € Average 135 € Women Age Payment 60-70 85 € 71-80 95 € Average 90 € So the results are the same. It means that there are made differences in the payments of people according to their gender and the gender that is less paid is female.
