Shoes falling from the sky

By cynisbliss

    So I was watching a soap opra in some Spanish channel with my mother when I saw this commercial for the new Chevy Traverse. The girl in the commercial frantically grabs shoes like no other that are all over the ground around her brand new crossover SUV that conveniently has a huge trunk for such an occasion. The funny thing about this commercial is that out of all the people in the commercial there’s one man who just laughs at all the women who are just picking up the shoes without checking the sizes or if pairs even match. At the end of the commercial the anouncer proudly states,” The new 2009 Chevy Traverse, the only thing to complete a woman’s needs.” I believe that this is such an outlandish way to market SUVs to women.

       Obviously, the ones who created this commercial think that women are very materialistic and that we need big cars and shoes. This attracted my attention just because it is kind of bizarre that a person would get so exited because shoes are falling from the sky. If shoes were falling from the sky I would run for shelter not try to stuff them in my car. Maybe women who have a shoe fetish might be in total bliss if this would ever happen. The point of view of this commercial is basically stating that women are frivolous when it comes to accessories such as shoes. The creators of this commercial want women to realize that if you buy our new SUV it will almost complete yourself.
