THEORY FOR PHOTOGRAPHY:

ARTICLE 1: Adolescents exposure to a sexualised media environment and their notions of women as sex object:

·         Gender stereotypes and beliefs-the idea that women are supposed to be sexually appealing-idealised to be sexual and look sexual

·         Fredrickson and Roberts (1997) the sexual objectification of women may be defined as the reduction of women to their sexual appeal in terms of their outer appearance and a focus on their body

·         Gives an inkling of sexual activity-if you buy these products

·         Men’s magazines-define women just by their image and sex appeal

·         Ward (2002) Though his research that young adults that watched TV and were exposed to multimedia content were more likely to believe that women are just sexual objects

·         Alternative explanations of women as sex objects-women as sex objects have cultural and social traits

·         Gender stereotypes-men in power-men be able and should be able to roam city-women in fixed places and should be able to be controlled-Simmel-metropolis of city life

·         Try to producer gender quality-and men superior to women-this links back to what i have talked about in previous posts of women being products of the gaze,
