Default Re: Return to Gender 101

I haven't had time to watch the whole video, but Guffman was primarily doing research on advertising and gender, and using it as another frame entirely.
Advertising, is how a culture that's primarily commercial, talks about itself and roles. It's not real life, it's a context in which we try to fit our actions and/or influence each other by presenting cultural markers to understand our place in our culture.
