3) What stereotypes of women can you find in the 1950s and 1960s adverts? Give specific examples.   

This is very offensive to woman as they are assumed as house wives however other advert that states ''you can do it'' contradicts the fact that they are not house wives but are very weak women. Hence, they are promoting women to get a job mainly aimed at men.

The 2000s adverts show women are more superior than men as men wouldn't pose or be positioned in this way.

5) How do your findings suggest representations of gender have changed over the last 50 years?

Gender representation has changed over the years via the social media. First, it went from men are superior and then women are superior. And now eventually both men and women are equal. Ever since, they have changes over the years.
