This is an ad for Diet Coke from the 90s. Now, I abhor Diet Coke but this ad almost makes me forgive it for all its sins. That’s because this ad is a showcase for the female gaze – the idea of shooting from a woman’s point of view. Yes, it’s only advertising, but think about how often ads assume the viewer is male and trot out the standard bikini girls.

And the guy is kind of hot.
I’ve created a new site called The Female Gaze where I’m hoping to look at ads, photos and films that give priority to a female perspective. It’s still in its early stages but it will grow, I’m sure.
Love the commercial! I am not a fan of the Coca-Cola company, but that ad was quite memorable indeed! I love your new blog too…looks exciting!
I went to the Female Gaze website, but I couldn’t find an RSS feed. Is it hiding?
Er… no, sorry. At present the site doesn’t have a feed because it’s a simple html site, not blog based.
Drat. Well, I’ll keep it in my bookmarks. 🙂
I didn’t go for a blog because it seemed a bit excessive for what I wanted to do with that site.
