Gender roles are assigned at a very young age; although children tend to grow up unaware of it occurring. They are exposed to it everywhere they go, through the media. Although a little girl might want the truck, and a little boy may be interested in the barbie, they're raised to think that liking those objects makes them strange. The media successfully administers this by convincing individuals that each gender has completely opposing needs, and we buy into it, literally. Women are taught that they must look pretty and be nothing short of understanding with men, while men are taught that they must show no emotion and be "strong." Women are sexualized in media, as is evident in music videos, where the "sexy" women are prancing around half naked and dancing provocatively. And even in the music or movie industries, they are expected to maintain a certain look. As was the case with Jennifer Lawrence, who was told she had to lose weight for her role of Katniss in The Hunger Games because she is considered "obese" in Hollywood. The actress is perfectly fit, and yet here we see only one example of how the media paints an unrealistic and unattainable image of what "beautiful" is supposed to look like. What most people tend to disregard is the fact that a lot of photoshopping goes into the creation of ads and magazine covers. So the stereotype is in fact unrealistic. In contrast, men are expected to not only be physically strong, but emotionally as well. They cannot show any traces of fear or sadness, because it signifies vulnerability and femininity. Instead, they are expected to bottle up their emotions or risk the chance of being called derogatory names such a wuss, or pansy. These stereotypes of men and women have been illustrated in media for decades, regardless of the fact that the roles are progressing into modern times.
