- 24. GENDER REPRESENTATION IN THE MEDIA By: Deja Kelling
- 25. What are the typical roles that men and women play in movies? How are the women portrayed in the media? How are the men portrayed in the media? What are some exceptional shows that aired on television that are popular? Do they fit the average person? WHAT MESSAGE DOES IT GIVE TO TEENAGERS AND YOUNG ADULTS?
- 26. Women always play the damsel in distress, home maker, eye candy, prostitute, maid, or warier girl that had a really hard life as a child. Men play the hero, rich, strong, powerful, and provider for the women. Women always play the damsel in distress, home maker, eye candy, prostitute, maid, or warier girl that had a really hard life as a child. Men play the hero, rich, strong, powerful, and provider for the women. In the media women are portrayed as gold diggers, sneaky, conniving, untrustworthy, whores, not smart, sexy, sacred humans. In the media men are portrayed as honest, good looking, rich, company owners, home owners, and superior. WHAT MESSAGE DOES IT GIVE TO TEENAGERS AND YOUNG ADULTS?
- 27. Some exceptional shows would be Moesha. Even reality television all the men and women play the typical gendered stereotyped role. In everyday life, these descriptions of what males and females should be are not accurate. Because of the fact that it is constantly on the television people have been conditioned to think that this is what they should be and how they should live. The media glorifies a lot of negative stereotypes with both genders making it the new “in” thing to be. WHAT MESSAGE DOES IT GIVE TO TEENAGERS AND YOUNG ADULTS?

- 33. GENDER STEREOTYPES IN COMMERCIALS Gender stereotypes are the most popular in television commercials for children with toys. Around Christmas time you never see girls in the K’Next, Legos, or train commercials just for the boys. However, the commercials that promote the toys for the girls are always the commercials with babies like the cabbage patch kids, or the easy bake oven for girls to back with or the stereotypical Barbie that has the awesome car with shopping bags and a mansion but no real profession. These stereotypes are basically throwing what each sex should be like at children and parents. People never get the chance to express themselves they way they want.
- 34. WOMEN ARE USED AS SEX SYMBOLS, CRY BABIES, UNTRUSTWORTHY, SPITEFUL MONEY HUNGRY, WORTHLESS HUMAN BEINGS. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH IT’S THE ONLY THING PEOPLE THING THAT FEMALES ARE GOOD FOR. MOST OF THE THINGS WOMEN ARE PORTRAYED AS ARE NEGATIVE, EVERY NOW AND AGAIN YOU WILL GET SOMEONE TO SAY SOMETHING POSITIVE ABOUT A FEMALE HOWEVER, THAT DOESN’T HAPPEN TOO OFTEN. THE MEN ARE PORTRAYED AS GOD’S, RULERS, RICH, POWERFUL, STRONG, PROVIDERS THAT WORK HARD AND SAVE THE DAY. THEY WILL NEVER BE KNOWN AS ANYTHING DIFFERENT IN THE MEDIA.
