Analyze the sexual scripts in movies?
Question by rusty s: Analyze the sexual scripts in movies?
I have this assignment, and I have no clue about which movies to choose:
2. Analyze two movies: You’ll have to choose two movies that include relationship content in order to analyze the sexual scripts listed below. Sexual scripts are defined as the shared, gender-specific social and cultural expectations that guide our beliefs about sex. List the movie title A short summary of the movie. Then give several examples of how the movie supports or does not support the social and cultural expectations beliefs about women’s beauty and body by demonstrating any of the sexual scripts listed below:
1. Women should be very sexy and very sensual (and of course, thin and beautiful) but also a virgin.
2. It is not acceptable for women to have more past (or present) sexual partners than men have.
3. For women, sex before marriage is okay, but it is still better to wait until marriage.
4. Men always know what a woman wants and needs sexually (and hence, women do not know what they want or need)
5. Women are the emotional creatures, men are the sexual creatures
6. Women say “no” or act disinterested even when they are interested in men
7. As a result, men should persistently pursue women in order to convince women to date or be in a relationship. (Adapted from Family Life Now Kelly J. Welch, 2007:323).
