Directions:
Either individually or with a partner, use iMovie (or another app of your choice - it must be approved by me first) to create a movie that answers the following questions:
- How does our society define masculinity and femininity?
- What effect do these gender stereotypes have on the way "men" and "women" feel about themselves and experience the world?
- What are some ways these stereotypes are perpetuated by the media/advertising?
- How might gender stereotypes lead to high rates of rape, and domestic or sexual violence?
- Do you think America needs to change how we raise our boys and girls (completely your opinion)?
- Be sure to include the following in your movie:
- Gender binary - a definition/explanation of the concept
- Gender codes - a definition/explanation of the concept
- Masculine gender codes/stereotypes
- Feminine gender codes/stereotypes
- Statistics on rape and domestic violence in America
- You movie should include audio, text and images/video. It must answers all questions above and include the required information outline above.
