Representation of Gender Today

• There is a lot of evidence to back up the point that gender over time has become more advanced. Also equality amongst men and women is a very important in society.
• Along with the changes there are some things that have not changed, there is also suggestions and evidence saying that roles of genders have not changed at all.
• An example backing the suggestion that gender roles have changed and patriachal society has almost been demolished is the texts referred to within the booklet such as the american hit sitcom Friends. Male characters have been known to be in touch with their feminine side where as the women are shown to be the dominant characters. Not only that but the roles and jobs they have within the sitcom shows equality in society.
• On the other hand, to back the suggestion that the roles of men and women in society has not changed at all is the media 100 (08), majority of them are men, in the top 10 there is only one woman; Jane Tranter. This tels there is a bit of a change in the society but even till today it is mainly a patriachal society.
• With these two examples, the second one stands out more, and judging by that i make my opinion that there is a change in society you are seeing more women poppin up in the world, yet there is still a long way to go, example being only one woman being in the top 10 of the media 100.
