Therefore, the gender identities we associate with gender are actually prefaces that we do rather than something that is born in us along with our sex. This video is intended for people studying media studies a level, GCSE, or communication or culture studies, or even film studies. It is a very easy theory to apply to texts because all gender roles are either performed or subverted from.
