British ad promotes marriage





This ad campaign was created "to make people reappraise marriage as the number of British people marrying drops to its lowest level since 1862."



Does anyone else think it's weird to advertise marriage?! It's not a product or service! (Although, the wedding industry is worth billions).

Tonight's Show: Weddings and Wives

Tonight Jennie Thunder and Geea explore the wierd and wonderful world of weddings and wives. Naturally, we do it with a feminist twist.

We'll look at the history behind the diamond engagement ring - and it ain't pretty. We'll delve into the mass consumerism behind the billion-dollar wedding industry. We'll discuss the history of the white dress and the meaning of becoming a wife.

Tune in tonight at 8:30 pm on CJSW 90.9 fm, or from http://www.cjsw.com/.

Remember, our shows are now available as podcasts, so click here to download the podcast (it should be available on Tuesday or Wednesday).
