rooted in Victorian ideals. While much of the research and examples pertaining to female sexuality are most commonly representative of white females, I will not delve into this gap in my approach. Unfortunately, the film in which I plan to analyze is also inherently biased in this sense and which may be a flaw I bring to the discussion in the project. The concept is to fill the gap surrounding why The To Do List was so heavily disregarded by fans and critics, particularly in comparison to the male equivalent

more coverage than males, despite their efforts and achievements being equivalent (Weter and Canni, 2013). This is evident in the sport sections of newspapers as well as other forms of mediated sport. Often only a minute portion, if any, of a newspaper page is utilised for the representation of female athletes. Media personnel attempt to permeate ideologies to wider society through the use of media texts, often legitimising the notion that sports are naturally an activity for males. This is achieved

someone, a candidate or employee, adversely because of that individual's sex. Indirect sex discrimination can transpire if someone presume conjectures regarding what category of employment women and men are competent, or incapable, of performing. (Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission, n.d) Although women have the capability of identical execution with equivalent aptitude and accomplishment in every undertaking occupied in by men, the subject of sex discrimination still confines many

of reported sexual assaults in 2011 occurred in the victim’s home, with only 16% and 7% occurring on the streets, respectively. (Australian Institute of Criminology 2014a). In addition, assault on the street in 2011 was nearly three times higher in male victims than females, with only 8% of all assaults against women happening on the street, compared with 22% of for men. Of course there are risks involved with being alone in certain places at certain times, and it is a matter of basic common sense

divide lines for this society. While race can sometimes be overlooked in society, discrimination based on gender is hardly absent, whether consciously or unconsciously, on the behaviors of society. In such a society that values masculinity, being born a male is like a rain check to so many privileges in life. In return, this social

adults. Another example is Susan Eloise Hinton, She created a book called The Outsiders which included a male narrator. She used a pen name which was pulled off to sound like a male, which she believed would make the story more realistic if people believed it was written by a male and so of course it worked. Lastly, Charlotte Bronte was determined to make a book where for once, a woman in the Victorian era was considered domestic or almost masculine, but due

Fashion is much like history in ways such as evolution. It has developed itself for the better over time, although still repeats a cycle of trends. Trends are popular stand alone items at that time and if it’s analyzed properly, fashion of the time tells our history in great detail. The importance of this is to take a look of the past style over the decades from the early 1800’s to current day and to keep in consideration how that evolved into a similar piece in an individual's closet. There

were male, so representation was obviously one-sided. Literacy in the ancient worlds was limited anyway, and few that could write were female. Oral culture is undervalued, though, because folktales were predominantly passed down by women. Religion played a huge part in early misrepresentation. Plato laid the philosophical foundations for inequality, which were then adopted by Christian and Jewish thinkers that followed him, hugely affecting Western literature. Plato’s Timaeus describes male bodies

conducted during this time, it was decided that there were ‘satisfactory reason[s] for the greater proclivity of the female sex to hysteria, and also for the absolute rarity of its occurrence in man.’ Furthermore, even though hysteria affected both males and females, in the nineteenth century it was seen as an illness that was prone to the female sex. This view flooded into society and thus created the many public debates on the discourse of the illness, along with the literary responses such as Jane

woman, as she begins to become terrifying and a threat to the social order almost like a ‘new woman’. The men in Dracula feel compelled to eliminate Lucy because of this thus her ‘death’. Moreover, Weissman examined the sexual and gender roles in Victorian novels, and she linked the man’s terror of sexual woman with the treatment of Bertha in Jane Eyre. In both novels, the woman is defined as very dangerous and full of madness but has the power to seek satisfaction for her own desires. Both Roth and
