The evidence of the unequal representation of women is evident in commercials, where cues are provided emphasizing the dominance of the man and the subservience of women. The phenomenon was discussed by Wood and Fixmer-Oraiz (2017), where the emphasis made was that the stereotypical representation of women and their relationship to men is evident in digital media such as films, programs…

During The Importance of Being Earnest, the idea of how each gender’s role in our culture centers throughout the whole play. During the Victorian life of this play, it is often that men have a greater amount of influence in the world than women. Usually, the men focus on political decisions, money, providing for their family, while women stay at the house and put their attention on cleaning, cooking, and taking care of the children. Also, men are treasured for their brainpower and judgment,…

Men define their masculinity by constructing cooking as a leisure activity rather than one of labour, and as a special event performed in their free time in a manner that is laidback and almost playful (Hollows, 2003: 239). Accordingly, men assert their masculinity by cooking as an occasion and as a form of creative leisure because it is distanced from domestic obligation and labour that are associated with women’s position in the gendered division of labour (Hollows, 2003: 243). This form of…

Gender Traditional Roles In this generation, I believe that the traditional gender roles are irrelevant because we all have the right to be treating equally and have freedom to do whatever we want. It doesn't need to follow the tradition gender because there are many women and men are living independently and not depend on the rules to survive. Yet, the reason I believe it is irrelevant because women had been treat unfairly since many years ago. People who following the traditional gender…

how we die. In “Women,” by May Swenson the author writes about what women are supposed to be, “… moving pedestals moving to the motions of men…” (Lines 4-9). Women are expected to do as men please. The woman is supposed to do what the man…

Gender roles is the expectations that are placed on a person who is associated to a specific gender. When you behave properly based on your gender you have specific behaviors, attitudes, activities, roles in work, and reactions to others (Godwin, PPT). For example, a male's gender role in high school would be to hold a position on a sports team, have a cocky attitude when faced in specific situations, and react to others with less compassion than a female. Gender role socialization is the “sets…

brave man and a fierce man (Steinbeck pg. 53).¨ however like brave and fierce men he can sometimes lose sight of what he needs to be focusing on. He tries to help his family in every way possible while simultaneously trying to serve and please his God. He isn’t a failure, nor does he ever think of giving up “No, I will fight this thing. I will win over it. We will have our chance,(Steinbeck pg. 56).” but from time to time he needs to accept the fact that he can’t do something. Kino is a good man…

In today’s society, we as an individual are develop upon the way “society” view things such as gender roles in dressing up certain types of style or fashion to fit in the “Norms” category in another word “tradition gender clothes.” According to “What is “Gender Specific” Clothing” source pakeys.org stated, “Because children are developing gender role identity during Preschool years, they require concrete examples of dress-up that are associated with men and women” (pakeys.org). In other words…

The male gaze is something I was never aware of before we started studying it in class. The way I define male gaze is a way that visual arts and literature depict women from a man’s point of view. Most Hollywood cinema is set up by males so that is one reason why women are perceived this way if there were more women in Hollywood cinema I am sure they would perceive women differently. Since more men are in Hollywood cinema women usually just exist for the pleasure of men. It’s usually always a…

Hobart Repertory Theatre’s theatrical production of The Elephant Man (by playwright Bernard Pomerance) was a dramatic play shown at the Playhouse Theatre on a traditional proscenium stage. Petr Divis revived the true story of Joseph Merrick, (referred to as John Merrick and played by Jon Lenthall) and joined hands with his performers to display a stellar feat of acting to the public. The idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover “could hardly be more strikingly epitomised than in the revelation of…
