steinrokkan posted:Spread out rural towns are also an American thing, to an extent, in countries where villages actually have communal infrastructure, people usually don't need cars for day to day living. Though at the same time, cars have led to the disappearance of village infrastructures (local shops killed by the competition from a big mall 30 km away, local schools closed replaced by a school bus leading the kids to a city school 40 km away, etc.), turning villages into "dormitory towns" which are then slowly deserted.

The entire point of softcore porn is to provide suggestive, titillating scenes. Nonsexual nudity being nonsexual, it doesn't remove the appeal of suggestive stuff. After all, you have many people who find lingerie more arousing than bare naked nudity.

I don't see how genitals are worse aesthetically than, say, ears and noses and mouths.  Oh gross! Nosehair! Saliva! Earwax!  The real difference is that we see people's heads every day in just about every setting. I'm sure if you find one of the few remaining communities where people live naked all the time, they won't go "you know, it's kinda ugly when you're not feeling horny".

A lot of marketing actually targets women, including products for men. (Because it's expected that most customers will be wives buying them for their husbands rather than men buying them for themselves.) There's certainly a large part of androcentrism in society, but things aren't as simple as a few slogans and handpicked examples. And as far as marketing is concerned, there is one and only one thing you should be sure of: marketing targets everyone. Why wouldn't they target women? Go to any mall and estimate the male/female proportion in the customers. You'll most probably get a majority of women. This is a known fact, it has been known for a long while, and it's only changing very slowly. Why would marketing target only men in this situation? Here, this might interest people who think advertising is all by men, all for men, all the time: https://www.linkdex.com/en-us/inked/10-women-in-advertising-on-marketing-to-women/
