English Language A2 Coursework- Language & Gender

Hii, I need to write a media text which relates to my language investigation. I explored how language is different in Women's Health vs Men's Health. (looking at Language & Gender)
Please help me brainstorm some ideas? I don't have any!

Look at overtly sexualised language? how they use language to sexual the genders? Ex. Men's Health Mag used the word "cum" (also spelt like that) instead of "orgasm"... Why do you think this is? Maybe this can be put into slang too.

Which gender magazine(?) uses slang more and why you think this is?

That's the only thing I could look at.

I looked at Language and Gender for my coursework, but focused mine on different forms of swearing and used transcripts. Far more easier than articles in my opinion!
