Wedding Party Organizes 2012 Feria Valencia
Nov 16
The Coordinator of Inter-area woman Valencia, Inmaculada Gimeno has requested the withdrawal of the slogan ‘The groom is a complement’ with which it promotes fair and Wedding Party organizes 2012 Feria Valencia from 25 November 27 next.
Gimeno considered “sexist and humiliating” the image of man reflected in the motto “reduce to a mere object” and “reified”.
For its part, Feria Valencia has ensured that there were no grounds for the withdrawal of this campaign, which traditionally has focused on the role of the bride at any wedding.
The leader of Inter Valencia believes that “this is a good opportunity for the society’s awareness on the need to control the advertising that routinely treats women as bodies in all types of ads.”
Those responsible for organizing the event have insisted that the central message of the event and Wedding Party has always been similar and consisted of placing the bride in the center of the celebration, something they consider “socially accepted”.
“We wanted to do the same campaign to highlight the absolute role of the bride, in this case is not saying who the protagonist or not have the major role,” added. “This campaign has drawn attention because it offers women a small step ahead of the man, contrary to the usual “they note.
However, the Associationof Men by La Equality (Ahige) believes that it is better to continue the theme of sight “to start making a profound reflection on how we feel when we treat men with inferiority, because that’s what happens with women consistently. ” “We are outraged that a man involved as a purse or a hat, but completely normal to see a woman used to sell a detergent or a high-end car. In the advertising market anything goes. The use of sexist language in advertising is very common, but always leave women disadvantaged. Advertising Wedding Party and this year may be revolting to humans, “explains Ahige delegate in Valencia, Santiago Egurbide.
