As far as i’m concerned media has an influence on our daily life and even on our personalities. First of all if we look at outlets of media like newspapers, magazines and especially tv programmes, we can see that they have significant roles on our gender identity.   The male and female models that depicted by media usually have the resemblance with their stereotypes. For example, while women are depicted as sex objects men are usually the strong individuals. Thus, that brings out an atmosphere where women are depended on men. Moreover, the media is the biggest factor which combined the blonde women with stupidness. In addition to this, there is even a film named Legally Blonde which based on this discrimination. Besides, commercials are also having a major influence on our daily life. Comparing the media outlets, my opinion is that the television has the most drastic effects as in terms of influence. On the other hand women magazines can be accepted as a different category. A huge percentage of women, especially unemployed women and housewives, are obviously effected by women magazines. Yet, there are women who are trying to live their life closer to the directions they read. In spite of these, newspapers and radio channels seem to be the least influential media outlets.
