Problem 1: Reflect back on the cartoons, television programs, or movies you watched as a child. Identify 5 specific examples. A quick internet search and maybe watch a trailer or a few minutes of an episode. What examples of gender stereotyping do these programs contain?
Problem 2: What evidence do you see for continuity or change in gender portrayals in children's movies or TV programming? Have we made progress? (Think of modern Disney films, for example.)
