Widening the Gender Gap: Teenage Magazines for Girls and Boys.
Willemsen, Tineke M.
Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, v38 n9-10 p851-61 May 1998
Six issues of one magazine marketed for girls and one for boys in the Netherlands were analyzed to determine whether contents were sex stereotypic or age specific. Issue content and language in articles on sex and relationships were studied. Both magazines address appearance and relationships with the opposite sex; however, the specific item content is often gender stereotypic. (EMS)
