QUESTION

What can movies and television shows communicate to people about gender roles and identities?

What can movies and television shows communicate to people about gender roles and identities? If you were to put on your cultural anthropologist "hat" and analyze a program, you would think about the messages it conveys regarding gender roles and identities.

For example, "Leave it to Beaver" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SiwgMgBLgo) and other shows of Post-World War II America reinforced certain values.

Choose a movie or television series that you enjoy, and discuss the following:

  • First, give an explanation of what your chosen program or movie is about. 
  • Next, analyze and discuss the ways in which it reflects, reinforces, or subverts gender constructs.
