Stereotypes of Males

Each gender has their own stereotypes and males have a lot of stereotypes that are not necessarily true. For example, some male stereotypes are that men like to work on cars, and that men are not nurses, men do hard and dirty jobs like a construction worker or a mechanic. They are not secretaries or teachers. Also some other male stereotypes are that men do not clean the house or raise their children. Male stereotypes are portrayed in many different ways in media. Especially in the 1930's, movies showed men being the dominant figure of the household and men would have the big roles in movies and in television. In addition to movies and television, male stereotypes are depicted in advertisements as well.
