1. In English we watched a musical video where the women were stereo typed as they were the gender to do all of the inside chores and the cooking and the men were portrayed as the gender that did all the outside hands on work. The video clip was set in the 70s.

Questions.
1.How are adults constructed in these texts?
Females should be second to males in both texts and in the second texts they stereotyped blonds and that they are meant to dumb.
2. What type of social reality does this text portray?
People dont want to things outside of their stereotypes eg. men doing the hands on outside work and women stay in the house cooking and cleaning.
3. How does this text construct a version of reality?
Draws from history, finds examples of props and setting that actually existed in that timeline.
4. What different interpretations of the texts are possible?
Yes- we can view the shift from men being positive to being put down, we can view the shift in society and cultural values- there is more to life then house, dog and kids.
