I do notice differences now in how the sexes are portrayed, because of this course. Commercials in particular. Gender policing, stereotypes, boxes, or whatever are featured in so many ads.
I was at a state champion football game, and watching the ads on the mega screen. There were two back to back for the same product. The first showed men fighting about the tenderness of a steak, then comparing it to being a referee.
The second ad featured all women in a clothing store. The woman were being fashion police, and arguing about a bad outfit. That's when the ad brought in the referee to help the fight.
This ad stuck out to me. Have you had any ads revolving around gender stereotypes/policing/boxes stick out to you?
