The first example would be Lady Gaga reinforcing the stereotype of how women should be deceived as. The normal women would be looked at as a real life version of a Barbie doll who wear make up and dress up to receive attention. However Lady Gaga while still receiving attention for the opposite reason of dress up as a man on a performance that would be broadcast to the world.
The second example I have used is a traditional way in looking at how a female is shown to be.This is an example of a female being traditionally shown on a make up advert with an agenda to sell make up to women in order for them to improve their appearance. This advert does not challenge Butlers gender theory as we are used to seeing women advertising make up.
This is an advert which reinforces Butlers theory of gender performances as it is an advert you would not be used to associated with men. The advert is trying to sell a mens cream in order for them to look after their skin. This would then challenge Butlers theory as men have now become more conscious about their appearance which you would more associate with females.
This advert is a Nike football boots advert. The advert reinforces Butlers theory of gender performance as, it shows men playing football and how the they will need the perfect football boots in order to play better. This is an advert we would be used to seeing as men are mostly connected to sports therefore seeing many adverts relating to this.
This poster is a poster promoting womens football and their upcoming schedules. This poster is challenges Butlers theory of gender performances. The reasons for this is due to we as the audience are not used to seeing female sports being promoted as, traditionally womens sport is not as popular as mens would be.
This is a perfume advert for men which reinforces Butlers theory of gender performance. The reason for this would be that we would assume to see a male on an mens perfume advert. However this could also challenge Butlers theory as, this would show that men are now become more in conscious with their appearance as they now want to have the perfect smell.
This game is a nintedodog game which is seen to be alternative view of Butlers theory of gender performance. The reason for this would be that this game was created for females who would look after their virtual pet. However as the game developed they then targeted it at men. This is shown through the colouring they use as traditionally they would use pink which they have now changed to a mutual colouring.
