Introduction
Earlier in the course you read The Story of X, which is a clever exploration of perceptions, stereotypes, prejudice, and sexism. Lois Gould published Baby X in Ms. Magazine in 1972 and expanded it to a book in 1978. Has anything changed in 30+ years? Let’s find out. Pretend you are a friend of the Jones’ and you just found out about the wonderful new addition to their family. So you head out to shop for Baby X.
Activity Instructions
Select three stores. They can be any department store, e.g., WalMart, Target, etc. and/or clothing or toy store. Stroll down the clothes and toys aisles. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation that describes your experiences and includes photos. Do the gender divisions that Jones’ encountered in the story still exist today?
Your presentation should be 15-20 slides, not including the title and reference slides. Include both photos and text. Speaker notes should be included for each content slide and include extra details.
At the end of your submission, include a brief Design Statement explaining the process and tools you used to develop your work. Your statement should be about a paragraph or so, in your own words (rather than formally written), and unique to this assignment.
