girl power?

Hello readers! Today I would talk you about a video called “Social media and the end of gender” In this video Johanna Blakley talks about the “old school” media, the “new school” social media, the gender and the stigmatization.

Firstly she starts talking about the stereotyped and disoriented gender. Then she talks about “old school media” (like TV, radio and videogames), that help with this stereotyped construction.

They understand the world with categories, so, they classified people with a demographic way (for example by age or gender) and with this method they know what you like and what not. With your age they can know the music, books or movies that you like. if you think like that a teenager can`t like old music because she`s not on her music category.

It that sounds strange? No, a lot of people can love things out of they own category and is perfectly normal.  

The “new school social media” logic classified people by what they like; this is more important that your age or your gender.  

Some studies say that woman is on the top of the social media revolution but, is possible that in the future the social media can be a feminist thing? Blakley says no but that scene can make a revolutionary thing, get over with the gender –destined things (like movies or series).

Nowadays, if you want to understand the people, you can get more information asking what they like that asking they age.  

In my opinion I think that the “new school” media thinking is very interesting because we can get the option to choose what we like, instead of determined stereotipes
