Guys my name is George, I'm doing hospitality management, i have taken the sociology course as an elective course.
I was asked to do an assignment on Gender representation in the mass media, for example:
-Representation of gender and childhood
-Representation of gender and sexuality
-Representation of gender and family
-Representation of gender and race/ethnicity
my task is to identify print ads from magazines which focus on my chosen sub-theme,
by choosing 10 ads and analyzing each one of them.
more specifically:
-how are men and women ( or Boys and Girls) represented in each ad?
-what do these representations of gender imply about the ways societies understand men and women(or Boys and Girls) in relation to the Subtheme you chose?
-Are these representations stereotypes of men/women or boys/girls? in what ways?
-what do these representations (or stereotypes) imply about the relation ships between men and women (or Boys and Girls)?
-what do they imply about the relative power each group has?
please guys i need urgent help as i have to submit this assignment on Monday and i don't know from where i have to start , or if you can suggest useful websites which can help me getting it done.
Thanks in-advance.
