TY - JOUR PY - 1976// TI - Sex role stereotyping in the Sunday comics JO - Sex roles A1 - Brabant, Sarah SP - 331 EP - 337 VL - 2 IS - 4 N2 - The present paper analyzes the contents of four family-oriented comics appearing in the Sunday comic section of a local newspaper for a period of six months. In two, the female characters overtly dominate the male; in two, the females play a passive, subordinate role. This study illustrates that even when overt signs of female dominance are found, traditional sex-role stereotyping persists.
