First real lesson.

Learnt about reprisentation in the media, using the idea of Angelina Jolie, and how her image has changed from her being this sexy icon, to a pregnant woman, and how different ideas are percieved.
Then we looked at gender stereotyping, and how women are known to "supposed" to look white, pretty, slim, etc. And how these women are pointed out to be more successful. And these woman are splashed over the media, making people feel this is the right way to look.

We also learnt about..
. Stereotying of age.
. Stereotyping of Masculinity.
. How first impressions can effect how we think about someone.
. How we associate certain things with other things.
. The principle of stereotyping.
We then were asked to form a case study, I chose "IndieKids".
