The research method I have chosen is archival research. This method focuses on seeing a broader view of a topic by looking into the history of it. For my topic of sexism, I am using this research method to show how television has evolved over the past 50 years. For an example, woman have always been portrayed to be stay at home mothers who are constantly caring for the children, cleaning the house, cooking the family's meals, etc. On the other hand, men have always been depicted as earning the money for a family by working a job. Have these gender roles reversed or changed today? Also, have new roles and stereotypes evolved from what is on television today rather than the pasts'?
