The "economic buyer" view of consumers says that individuals will only buy the cheapest goods and

There is a basic code of behavior that governs female interaction, referred to in the vernacular as “girl code.” These unspoken rules are largely based on an assumption of trust and respect among the women in a particular social circle and only apply to women who are considered friends or colleagues. “Girl code” is also firmly rooted in the idea of female competition, particularly in regards to viewing males as potential suitors. A careful analysis of a few of these rules through the three main sociological perspectives will illuminate the underlying themes and meanings in the interactions of women.

The Popularity Papers. These two best friends Lydia and Julie are best friends, the girls want become and have “label” on them as popular. What they do to become popular is take notes on how to be popular, they assume taking notes will crack the code to be popular. In the end they come to the conclusion that being popular isn’t that important that they made it seem. Lydia and Julie are different in multiple ways. Lydia is more bold, Julie is more shy. I consider myself both of those. This is a book that I can relate to because when I was younger, starting middle school I though being popular was the only way you were going to have friends. In the end thats not what its about because the only friends you have at the end of the day is the ones

Gossip Girl consists of the lives of the filthy rich students of Constance on the Upper East Side of New York. These privileged teenagers go through a series of obstacles and events that showcase the flaws of the high class life. This series is compacted with articles of commodity, as well as use of power, wealth, and luxury and how these attributions affect you in society. Serena Van der Woodsen, Blair Waldorf, Chuck Bass, and Nathaniel Archibald are the four main characters. They do whatever they need to in order to get what they want- literally whatever. They put the lives of others in danger. Their family and friendship bonds are tested through these six seasons. In this television series I will be analyzing the

I noticed that two of the articles were opposing in the argument of the façade that popularity gives people. The character traits listed in “The Popular Girl” gave the archetype a mythical well rounded sense of being. She is cool and affluent in any social context with “fine sympathy and wide understanding” (“The Popular Girl”) for anyone that crosses path with her. The girl can blend with others, but still keep a unique sparkle about her. I believe that although that is most desirable, it is not very realistic. Humans are awkward and clumsy. We can try to please everyone with our personality, but inevitably we will come across someone who does not like us. The article “Making Aim of Popularity is Disillusioning” by Doris Blake points out the

To begin, in social media’s eyes most teenage girls are obsessed with Starbucks because that is what the majority fits. I could care less about Starbucks coffee, it not something I like to drink and I have never been the kind of girl to follow trends. I would much rather have a homemade hot chocolate or tea than spend 5 dollars for a drink that might not be any good. Most girls who fit this advertisement identity are always posting about their every move and constantly on social media. I post once a month, maybe, and usually it's because I need a confidence boost. This advertisement identity isn’t just wrong about me there are many other girls who don’t fit society's stereotypes. I have many friends who have the same thoughts on Starbucks as I do.

For teenage girls to be treated this way is horrible. Society might not think it’s the right decision, but I don’t understand why strangers are all the sudden concerned about me. I understand everyone has their right to state their opinion but it’s hard. I wasn’t even pregnant and I had to actually stop halfway on the day that I did it by myself. To be a young person and having to be put in those situations is the unthinkable. Looking back on it all I was shocked. I can’t believe that it’s okay to be so rude and hurtful to someone who’s young and pregnant. In society it’s okay though for them to be rude and mean. If you don’t follow the norm you get treated horrible and get told how you should know better. The norm is so strict here that it’s

Ever since its inception in 1892, Vogue has catered its offering to high class women. To characterize the typical Vogue reader, picture this: a twenty-nine year old woman who lives in Manhattan, with an upper level position in a PR firm. Picture this woman decked out in today’s latest and greatest designers, a Louis Vuitton purse, a Michael Kors bracelet, sunglasses by Gucci and shoes by Louboutin. This is in essence Vogue’s target market. Vogue has long been a magazine that has promoted ideologies of class by celebrating upper class life and denigrating the working class. According to Douglas Kellner, dominant ideologies serve to “reproduce social relations of domination and subordination.” In terms of the ever-controversial LeBron/Giselle

Disney’s main target audience of adolescent girls is especially subject to the power the films have on their social rearing as well as the social standing of women in society. The company was so focused on producing films that exemplified a perfect world that the portrayal of women in these films became a cultural pedagogy for women as the viewer of these exact

"Popular girls" is a short story from 2001 by Karen Shephard. She is born and raised in New York and her work has been published in several papers. The short-story sets in the early 80 's where we get some insight in the life of five rich and popular girls. They are self-centered and don 't have the slightest interest in other people. Their entire life is about maintaining their image as a group. The setting is New York, which is the riches city in the US. The city is also known as The big Apple and The city that never sleeps. This reflects in the mentality of these girls. They do speed, and not weed, because they want to get through school as fast as possible. They want to live life in the fast-lane and do extravagant
