The article mentioned in class brought about a really big discussion about the prejudice and mistreatment of certain races and genders in the media. I was really surprised by the amount of gay, lesbian, transgendered and bisexual issues in television and movies.
It was interesting to see that many men are shown as sissy and very submissive and non-sexual... but I think many women are shown as overly-masculine or overly-sexual in order to conform to a certain demand that television gives them.
Many TV shows and movies have certain stereotypes in order to fill a void or a space in a script or purposeful message.
