Although it is a complex time of change—emotionally, physically, socially and intellectually— today, puberty is commonly seen as a positive transition. Helping students understand the physical and emotional changes taking place will contribute to their development of a positive and informed approach to adolescence. Puberty begins (usually between the ages of 8 and 13) when the pituitary gland sends a signal to the brain to begin producing a hormone. In girls, it’s estrogen produced by the ovaries; in boys, it’s testosterone produced in the testicles. This sets in motion physical and emotional changes that lead to sexual maturity. EMOTIONAL CHANGES AT PUBERTY The wide emotional swings that girls and boys experience in

  • A Critical Discourse Analysis of the SK-II's
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 10, No. 2, pp. 176-188, February 2020 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/tpls.1002.05 Can Beauty Advertisements Empower Women? A Critical Discourse Analysis of the SK-II’s “Change Destiny” Campaign Huimin Xu Hainan University, Haikou, China Yunying Tan Qiongtai Normal University, Haikou, China Abstract—This study examines the advertising campaign of a beauty product SK-II, “Change Destiny” through the lens of critical discourse analysis. By unpacking the verbal language and visuals in the three advertisements and a video advertisement, this article aims to investigate how the beauty advertiser SK-II constructs the ideal images of women through discursive strategies in ads and uncover the possible ideologies underlying the advertising discourse. Adopting Kress and Van Leeuwen’s (1990 ,1996) framework of ‘reading images’ and systemic functional grammar (Butt, 2012; Halliday, 1994) to analyze the texts and visuals in the ads, this study has found that the beauty brand SK-II has utilized various strategies to engage the audiences and market its products, such as problematizing the aging of women, providing personalized solutions to the problem of aging, constructing certain feminist discourses for women, and drawing itself close to the younger generation through women empowerment. The findings show that although the beauty brand claims to empower women through advocating change of destiny for women in its ads, gender ideology remains to be dominant and continues to perpetrate women. It is concluded that these new changes in the ads are simply playful discursive strategies that employed by advertisers to legitimate the new capitalism and commercialism and generate more sales.
