University of South Florida Sex Articles in Magazines Analysis Paper Answer all the questions on the two parts in the attached file , use deep academic psychology language. PART 1:
SHOW ME YOURS AND I’LL SHOW YOU MINE (1.5 PAGE MINIMUM)
Men’s and women’s magazines are highly honed to interest largely one or the other
gender. They are designed to appeal almost exclusively to ways men and women differ
from each other. Interestingly, they both provide nearly constant coverage of sex, albeit
from quite different perspectives. Awareness of the differences between the portrayls
requires reading examples of magazines written for the other gender. Therefore this
activity requires you to closely study sex articles in magazines written for the other
sex. Men can read Cosmopolitan and Vogue or Women’s Day while women can read Maxim
and GQ or Men’s Health. Bearing in mind that these articles were not written for your
particular gender, **please reflect on how your own sex is being represented and how the
material is different from what might appear in magazines written for your gender. Those
of you who have not read any of these magazines at all before this exercise will need to
investigate magazines from each gender to gain the comparative perspective upon which
this assignment relies. What stereotypes are portrayed and how do your feel reading these
magazines? What surprises did you find in the magazines designed for those of different
genders than yourself? What things did you expect to find? Were your expectations
confirmed? In what ways? You may want to review a couple of different magazines in
order to get more material and information about male or female magazines.
Respond to each issue shown in questions above….remember to elaborate and express as
much as you can on these topics in order to receive credit for this assignment. (SHORT,
SIMPLE, BASIC responses WILL NOT receive points)
