Hip-Hop and R'n'B

I have been asked to create four pages of a new, teenage magazine aimed at an audience of either or both genders within the range 13 to 19 year olds. I have been asked to create the front cover, a double page spread and a contents page or an adverts section. I chose to design a music magazine for people of both genders who are aged sixteen and upwards. The magazine is mainly written for people of all ethnic origins who enjoy their music and for people who lived in the region of south-east London.

The gender role reversal is another way they are shown to be disempowered. Through their exclusion from their own Working mens club "traditionally a homosocial male enclave into which women are admitted only if related to a male member."12 they are made to feel as women excluded from this male only arena may feel. Their choice of stripping as a way of regaining this arena and their dignity also allows them to be feminised to some extent as they are doing what women have done for years, using their bodies to gain power and influence. They are forced to consider as women do, that they will be judged on their appearance and develop fears about their appearance resorting to various extreme devices to improve their looks.
