GENDER

In gender I believe their are male and female there are only two there is not changing that. Though not without mention each are different in biology and EQUAL in logical standpoints with what I define as differentiating qualities in personalities on a spectrum of biological set qualities of either more feminine or more masculine these are influenced by individual experience and tendencies associated and linked to our determined genitalia and DNA. outside factors such as beliefs of evolution and the basis of religion culture, childhood experience and history through life have shaped our experiences, mental capabilities, decisions and thought process so societal construct can effect how we see ones own self.

Such as the generalisation of men and women in older animated films. the Disney princess movies as an example, these ideologies existed where the men were the hero’s who save the princesses sticking to a specific stereotype. In this sense across animation and video games women merely became a piece of art for the main protagonist being highly sexualised for the main demographic of men women more of a pretty object than a heroin herself and this has influenced tings in a bad or good way. many would argue about that but that is down to your own onset opinion.

Today this factor has very much changed as not just male and female are being represented but other association’s to gender as well and the inequality of how animation used to represent people across the spectrum is changing. I believe in the animation industry their was a need for change. In animation awareness has been growing across cartoons and movies explaining to a large demographic of children showing that problems and unequal circumstance due to how they express themselves and define their sexual attraction or own self is something everyone should know about and treat with more care and understanding.

In animation these notions should not be seen as a taboo in our society today but rather be accepted in the sense that many are gay, lesbian or apart of the community. In animations such as she-ra from Netflix, Steven universe and adventure time from cartoon network create a safe foundation that represent this acceptance and awareness. Although this development of understanding one another is good. It has also created a rather bad side where now not accepting this can lead to bad consequence’s which is controlling and contradicting to respecting and loving one another. The trend over media has influenced in some good and bad ways.

Gender has changed in the animation industry more female characters being heroines with their own stories, different genders, personalities and people being represented to educate across the worlds properly as animation has a massive control over the influences of children.
