1) Find three adverts featuring women that are from the 1950s or 1960s. Save the images to your Media folder as jpegs and then import them into your blog post. Hint: You may wish to look at car, perfume or cleaning products but can use any product you wish.

3) What stereotypes of women can you find in the 1950s and 1960s adverts? Give specific examples. 

 The stereotypes that i have found in 1950s ad 1960s is that women have to clean and also they are cooking.They are also shown as the husbands slave and they have to do what they say to do.

4) What stereotypes of women can you find in the post-2000s adverts? Give specific examples.

The sterotypes that I can find in the 2000s is that they have to look good and dress in a certain way because of there gender.Also, women are objectified and sexulised.

5) How do your findings suggest representations of gender have changed over the last 50 years?
A few decades ago women were housewives and had no say but in now days women have more freedom. Also,they have a say and not looked down at.
