Analyse the representation of gender in the music videos for "The Man" by Taylor Swift and "Riptide" by Vance Joy In Riptide, women are usually always being represented as victims, with there being a lack of positive representation throughout. We know this as an audience as it doesn't take long for us to see these images, as within the first few seconds we are introduced to a woman in a dentist’s chair. Even though this image may not sound that bad, it is very obvious that the woman is in a state of distress, looking scared at the camera. These types of images appear constantly throughout the video as well, including pictures and videos of the women that seem to be taken in secret.

Tide Print Advert Analysis Slogan: The slogan of the print advert gives us a very clear target audience, along with a very clear perspective of who created the advert. The slogan reads ' No wonder why you women buy more Tide than any other washday product' which plays on the very real stereotypes that were present during when the advert was created (the 1950s). During this time, women were stereotypically seen as the ones who stayed at home, cooked, washed, cleaned, and looked after the kids, whilst men would be the ones who would go out to work.

These stereotypes are also heightened through the use of the term 'any other wash day products', as it suggests that all women that focus on buying is washing products to use around the house, further implementing the idea that all women are used for is looking after children and completing chores around...
