Buying a specific product means, gaing a specific status. As Leppert (2009), “Imagery urges what sort of bodies to have and to desire or to build (even the seeming natural “given” of our fleshly frames is terrain for future construction); it influences our sense of self, our belief systems, our individuality, and our status as social beings; it encourages what clothes to wear or car to drive, which political party to vote for, and so forth”.
