Sexual Images in Media

This photo shows a Victoria Secret model posing for a VS photoshoot, to some people they see her as being vulnerable, and having childlike silliness by having her head tilted and hand on the side of her face. She has that "sexy innocence" look on her face too making her stand out to men in a pornographic way. 

In this photo it shows Kylie Jenner modelling for a puma. This picture shows her leaning in a way that looks like she's with-drawled from the things around her, she got a sexual desire look in her expression, that could have pornographic relation.

This picture of Gigi Hadid posing for GUESS makes her look very submissiveness and childlike, the way she is sitting and holding her hands, while her hair is covering most of her face and her expression is scared and needy looking.You could say this picture could relate to something from pornography. The needy look in her expression also makes her look like she's wanting protection. 

I think these views on pictures like the ones above are thought into way to much, and that most of the women's poses or expressions isn't for mens desires or to make them look like they need sex or is trying to promote things in relation to sexual desires.

I think depending on how much you advertise things that have elements similar to pornography, you could take it to your advantage. I get that sex sells but I don't believe that it should be the only easy way for products and companies to promote themselves. I don't think its inappropriate or appropriate, it all depends on what elements are used and how many.
