Abstract
In this paper the differences between femininity and masculinity which appear in popular TV series Modern Family were analyzed. Over the last few years the representation of femininity and masculinity has been modified and improved, however some stereotypes about what women and men should do still lingers. It can be said that in Modern Family differences between femininity and masculinity are not strictly determined. The goal of this paper was to analyze how Modern Family uses typical femininity and masculinity stereotypes to show to its viewers that they are not obliged to follow already established guidelines concerning gender differences. Modern Family provided to its viewers the notion of change, making them realize that it is possible to ignore or neglect popular opinions imposed by the society and to create your own rules. Furthermore, the TV series enabled its characters to change, meaning that female characters were given the opportunity to show their more masculine side and male characters were given the opportunity to show their more feminine side without being judged. Additionally, from the character analysis, it can be seen that division between men and women should not be taken as strictly or as seriously as it was in the past.
Abstract (croatian)
Ovaj diplomski rad se bavi razlikama između ženskosti i muškosti koje se pojavljuju u popularnoj TV seriji Moderna obitelj. Iako se reprezentacija ženskosti i muškosti promijenila i poboljšala posljednjih nekoliko godina pojedini stereotipi o tome što žene i muškarci trebaju raditi su se zadržali. Može se reći da u Modernoj obitelji razlike između ženskosti i muškosti nisu u strogo utvrđene. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je analizirati kako Moderna obitelj upotrebljava stereotipe stvorene o muškosti i ženskosti kako bi pokazala svojim gledateljima da ne trebaju slijediti već utvrđene smjernice koje se tiču razlike između spolova. Moderna obitelj je pružila svojim gledateljima ideju o promjeni te ih navela na razmišljanje o tome kako je moguće ignorirati ili čak zanemariti popularna mišljenja koja društvo nameće i kako je moguće stvoriti vlastita pravila o tome što žene i muškarci mogu raditi. TV serija je omogućila svojim likovima promjenu, tj. ženski likovi u seriji su dobili mogućnost da pokažu svoju muškost, a muški likovi su dobili mogućnost da pokažu svoju ženskost bez ikakvih osuđujućih pogleda. Nadalje, iz analize likova, gledatelji mogu vidjeti da razlike između muškaraca i žena ne trebaju shvaćati tako strogo ili ozbiljno kako su ih ljudi u prošlosti shvaćali.
