In this chapter, I present how two pop cultural sites—The film The Kids Are All Right, the television series The Fosters—represent butch motherhood. My intention is to expose the discourses in action to reveal how they operate and contain instruction that delivers as disciplinary performance. I divide the following sections into individual discussions of each cultural text to reveal the cogs within each site. I then compare and contrast both texts to investigate the tensions between both productions and how the discourses thematically collude. Finally, this comparative analysis considers the disciplinary discourse that develops in accord with gender and motherhood.

Upon first glance of their homepages, the two sites look completely different in style. When The Metropolitan Museum homepage loaded, I was in awe of the bold image of a man's face covered with ink art. It was eye-catching at first, but then I noticed there was no other graphics or pictures on the homepage. The one slide show picture did not even fill the screen from side to side either. It left a kind of boring, bland feeling with me. Then I clicked on the link for the National Gallery of Art homepage. As this site loaded, it filled the computer screen with side to side full color. The background was a beautiful picture of an elegant cathedral-like building. In the middle of this eye-catching background was a slide menu where each group had its very own beautiful picture. Another refreshing feature is that the background image changes often so that each time I visited it is was a different background image. Although the menu pictures were not as large as The Metropolitan
Growing up pop culture has truly saved my life, and now as a young adult, it is time for me to embrace pop culture and use it to help build my career. As a child, I would get bullied all the time in school because I’m gay. The only source of amusement and sense of excitement growing up came from the media, pop culture. For as long as I can remember, I was always fascinated with magazines and music videos. I always admired the way ads were presented in magazines, billboards, and music videos. The slogans presented, and the message trying to get across to the audience is always done in a spontaneous and creative way. I believe that advertisement is the heart of big businesses.

Popular culture film and music has long since been awash with drug references and imagery. The context of these references has majorly affected the way in which they are received and perceived by the wider public, expressly in times of social or political change and unrest. The context in which these images and sounds are being interpreted affect the response to racial vilification, representation, along with gender roles and stereotypes. Conventional practice in the entertainment industries has developed over time but drugs, their users and dealers, including the consumption and production, continue to be portrayed in a mainly negative light, showing the complexity of this particular social process.
Web sites are just like magazines, newspapers, brochures, menus, or even directions on how to make nitroglycerin from house-hold goods, in that they all have to be put together in such a manner that whoever is reading or browsing over it will be able to clearly distinguish this from that. In this sense, a critique of any particular web site will have justification, while carefully considering also that this is an altogether new medium of information exchange. Now, all of this talk of togetherness is actually a general reference to basic design principles, such as color coordination, if color is used, text size, font choice/ style, art integration, accessibility, and just plain and simple design of the page.

In modern communication, there are various types of culture. The most widely known of these types is pop culture.

The Oregon Health & Science University, commonly referred to as OHSU, applies these very same tactics to draw people into exploring their website. Utilizing a calming color scheme with friendly and easily understandable phrasing and their use of a clean and simplistic layout makes navigation easy, allowing users to quickly find useful and updated information.
