I need a bit of help finding info please

[Ilythia]

I am looking for good resources for 14-15 yr olds regarding gender stereotyping and media influences but cannot use youtube.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Are you in a school and can't use Youtube because it's barred, Ilythia?

If so, it's possible to download from Youtube, save on a pendrive then play on a computer with Quickplayer......

Just a thought.

I've just read Porn Generation by Ben Shapiro
www.amazon.com/Porn-Generation-Social-Liberalism-Corrupting/dp/0895260166?tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21

It looks at how social liberalism in the media, schools, university and films, fashion etc is effecting teenagers esp how this impacts upon young girls and how teenage boys view women.

Pinkstinks might be worth a look:

It seems more aimed at slightly younger children, although there are some links to some great articles in the "News" section which would probably help. Also, it may help them to recognise that gender stereotypes start at birth.

Great stuff, thanks guys.

Am having trouble keeping it balanced and not just going at them from teh feminist point of view.

And yes immaculada
