Question

How are men and women represented in the advertising?Do you think that the advertising reflects reality?

Answer 1

Answer:

I don’t read magazines because they make me angry with their gender roles and beauty norms, but what I’ve seen is that women are shown as overtly skinny and always dressed in “girl” colors, with a man, or dressed in nothing but underwear. Men are shown as strong, dominant figures and this reflects reality because it shaped how women and men view themselves. They also change how they act to fit in to what the magazines are showing, even though it’s likely not how they would be without the influence.

Answer 2

Answer:

Men are shown as hard and unemotional and women are portrayed as beautiful feminine and ditsy.

Explanation:

I think it shows parts of each gender, but gender isn't defined to that. Not every man is hard and not every women wears sundresses and twirls around during that time of the month
