Love Is The Need For Physical Affection

AT&T’s “Close to Home” commercial effectively develops pathos through consumers using children. The company uses sentimental moments to give the audience a warm feeling inside and stir up their emotions. The commercial shows the children and how they are affected by a simple texting and driving accident. The child can be killed or left without their families. AT&T states, “No text is worth it.” Aaker, the professor of Marketing Strategy at the University of California, states “Wells, Leavitt, and McConville (1971) include adjectives from their study such as gentle (also in Aaker and Bruzzone's warmth factor), tender, soothing, serene, and lovely in the factor they term ‘sensuousness.’ Schlinger (1979) found an ‘empathy’ factor associated with commercials involving affectionate couples, warm relationships, mother-child interactions, attractive products, vacation settings, or appealing characters such as Pillsbury's ‘soft and cuddly’ doughboy.” Children make the advertisements relatable and cause the audience to feel empathetic. Children bring out general emotions and help persuade consumers to buy their products.

By asking the viewer to imagine themselves in a certain situation the creators of this ad are asking viewers to empathize with others. The clever use of pathos in this ad, is what will make viewers feel compassion and

I have decided to talk on a topic that people would not expect a teenage boy to talk on. And so said topic is love. Now I do not mean to talk about the love that a boy has for a pretty girl, because that is way to complicated for anyone of us to figure out. The type of love that I want to talk about is a simple love, and sadly it is unknown by most people on this Earth, and that is the love of our Heavenly Father, and brother has for each and everyone of us.

Dealing with death and the emotions that come along with it is common to humans. This is especially true when it involves a parent or grandparent. In the commercial, the woman is having to deal with her ill father who is bedridden. This is an event most will have to go through once in their lives and letting go can be difficult. However, there is one thing that can help soothe the process of death and that is the existence of deep love for the person. Despite the commercial presenting this sensitive topic, the advertisement effectively reminds the audience the importance of everlasting love because of the use of pathos and ethos.

One of the advertisements created as part of the campaign features a young, interracial couple smiling and laughing while enjoying listening to music. With the purpose of recommending getting flu shots, the advertisement uses a young couple to target an audience of young adults. The

This ad shows emotional appeal because there is a mother taking care of her children.

There are a couple of groups that this type of ad seems to really connect with and sink in. The first being the young, the reckless and those longing for love. Then there are those who want to feel that way, again. An older person in their 70’s and has recently retired, sees this ad, days of their youth would flood back in. This image captures the present and the past for both parties.

For some people love is a complete devotion and endless adoration, for others is a temporary feeling that will disappear in time. For some people it is a fairy-tale and for others it is a dream come true. Some people say love is once-in-a lifetime thing and others believe that after one love comes another. The more you try to find a universal definition of love – the more you get confused with all these words you get from different people around you. The more you think you get closer to the true meaning of this feeling- the more you realize that the definition of love is probably your own, unique and sincere truth about love. Throughout the history a lot of writers suggested their understanding of love to their readers. And it is important

According to the web, Love is: tenderness, fondness, predilection, warmth, passion, adoration. A deep and enduring

The Biblical definition of love is as follows; “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres.”- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7. Many people believe love means sacrifice and trust, but love can be defined as much more. There are many different types of love, and everyone loves differently. People do not love their dog the same way they love their husband/wife. People, also do not love their dogs the same way as one another. Love is complicated and undefined. Society cannot perfectly describe the overwhelming feeling of love as one, clear definition. Love is subjective to each individual, but what is known, is the overwhelming love the Lord has for His children. The Lord loves unconditionally, as we should with one another. If we project the love the Lord has unto others, we can understand the true power of love. Love is patient, love is kind, but love is so much more; love is selfless, love understands, and love is forgiveness.

These commercials often portray a beautiful woman hanging on the muscular arm of a tall, dark man. Is love being in the arms of the perfect looking person who can boost your ego,, or is love being willing to clean up the putrid vomit your pregnant wife spews on the bathroom floor? Love is not feeling bubbly or staring with goo-goo eyes; rather it is opening the car door for your significant other.

Love is also the feeling someone has for a job perhaps, for a lobby of the hotel you serve in that always smells just so and has plants hanging from the wall giving the illusion you had just stepped out of a dreary gray, salt-encrusted winter into a touch of the exotic. Or for a hobby, for the grip of a ball, the tension in a muscle, the throw, watching it spin just so to the exact right spot. For rolling a die and dreaming up daring adventures against ancient dragons, or of that risk of gaining or losing it all. For the whoosh of air in free fall from 10,000 feet, or the watery embrace of sea exploring. For healing a sick child, for holding a kite string as it plays upon a wind we've no control over. For

When asked the question “What is Love?” what are some of the first things that come to mind? Some people might say it is an emotion that we experience when we interact with the world around us. People can have love for many things such as money and other material possessions, family and friends, even the world around them. These are just a few examples of how we often use love in our lives. However, love is not only confined to our lives, it is also a very important emotion in religions as well.

At first glance the advertisement seemed so simple and to the point, but the image has an emotional pull that people still cannot resist. We see a beautiful woman basking in the glow of the night’s sky. In the background we see the castle, which represents her

Although love may concern the intimate and micro-level interactions of local communities, it is intricately tied to the macrostructures of colonialism, economics, and religion. Policies concerning LGBT communities in the Philippines, albeit limited, are being faced with heteronormative rhetoric that impedes queer Filipinxs from moving up the socioeconomic ladder. The “Philippine Family Code,” explicitly defines marriage as a “permanent union between a man and a woman,” underscoring the ways in which LGBT communities are systematically left out of the conventional family structure, and by extension, marriage. The exclusion of these marginalized communities through policies exemplify Gayle Rubin’s “charmed circle,” which denote the
