I’ll be attending the BlogHer Conference at the Westin in San Francisco from July 18 – 20 with a few of my colleagues. I was perusing the site this morning and stumbled upon a rather ironic ad being served on their site for WeightWatchers.
Seems odd to me that an event who’s vision includes ‘creat[ing] opportunities for women who blog to pursue exposure, education, community, and economic empowerment’ shouldn’t succumb to serving ads focused on weight loss and doubting one’s self image.
I’m no feminist – seeing this banner ad elicits more of a giggle than blind rage – but I still found it rather sad that the event producers, proponents of female communities, are serving up targeted ads like these.
favorited this one, dude

Hello.This article was really motivating, particularly because I was searching for thoughts on this matter last Monday
