In no more than one page, create 2 paragraphs: (1) an introductory paragraph that introduces the media you have chosen, as well as the key concepts from the course that you will be applying in your analysis (have at least 3 concepts), and (2) in a description that does not go past the first page, give an overview of the program you have chosen: basic plot/purpose, intended audience, genre, when/where it airs, length, etc.

Make sure by the end of the first page it is evident how applying a feminist sociological imagination to this media will allow us to see it with new eyes.

For the remainder of the next 3 pages (this is a 4-page assignment), apply the key concepts you have chosen and explain how and why they apply to the specific examples from your media-use direct quotes from the media when possible, but make sure these quotes are brief and the majority of the paper is analysis of the quotes in your own words.

As you brainstorm what your main focus/thesis will be as you analyze your media, ask yourself some or all of these questions:

How is the feminine set up as a contrast to the masculine, or vice versa?

How are cultural norms either violated or reinforced through this media?

Are similar characteristics/traits described/portrayed differently when a man or woman is present?

What assumptions are being made about those who are watching (especially as they relate to gender)?

Might any of these gender representations been cast differently with a different intended audience or genre?

Who is included/excluded and why?

Could any of these representations be considered inappropriate/offensive by some? If so, what, why, and how? And could it be potentially changed to be less offensive/more sensitive and still serve the same overall purpose? If so, how?

What messages (whether overt or subtle) are communicated about what is appropriate for each gender through this media?

In what ways does gender intersect with other statuses (age, race, class, sexual orientation, religion, immigration status) in this media? (again think of who is included/excluded here too)

Can you think of any ways this representation could be improved to be more gender inclusive?

Make sure you end with a conclusion paragraph that reiterates and extends what has been accomplished in the paper, including any implications for wider society.
