Journal #10

**should have been posted Friday July 16th but power and internet connection kept going out due to storms**

Find an advertisement using the term “metaphor”. Explain what is going on the in the ad– and how the term is used. Is it effective or not?



In this ad the red present is a metaphor for a woman's menstruation. This time of the month has many nicknames, one of them being "monthly gift". I think that this metaphor is effective because all women know what the ad is trying to symbolize. Also the product is saying that you don't have to be worried about receiving this monthly gift which is well illustrated.
