Sexuality stereotypes in 1980s television: Episode 4
This episode of Postmodern Sitcom talks about sexuality stereotypes in 1980s television and how stereotypes affect Generation X’s opinions today. My guest, Ksenia, and I talk about sexuality by watching the 1980s television sitcom The Golden Girls. We have some real conversations about sexuality in situations women still face and how today’s younger generations address them. This isn’t a “bash men fest.” This is about how I, a Gen X’er, am still learning how to speak up when something doesn’t sit well or feel right. In this post “Me Too” reality, Ksenia helps me understand that it is increasingly more acceptable that women are standing their ground. Today’s women are more than 1980s television stereotypes.
