Thesis:
An analysis of clips from Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory suggest that young women today are encourage to be nothing more than a pretty face with a good physique while young men are encouraged to show their dominance through success and intelligence. This shows that when it comes to gender messages, both men and women are worse off today than prior generations because we are allowing men’s dominance to be claimed through objectifying women.
