Essay focus

After carrying out research for my extended essay proposal, I managed to narrow down my essay theme/question. My essay focus is a topic that I feel strongly about and also wish to further my knowledge on the subject.   

                                                               Essay theme


I intend to focus on the power balance between men and women. I will explore how they have changed in society by reflecting back to the 1950’s with reference to their roles and how they are projected within advertisement. 

Before, men and women had specific roles that they were known for. In a married relationship, it was most common for a women to undertake the household chores with the male being dependant on the women’s domestic and nurturing ability. In comparison to nowadays, women are not dependant on a male’s income nor do men rely on women's cooking. I want to create a discussion that highlights how Society is changing as well as the male perception towards women.
