" Television's world of work in the nineties"

It is important to understand how different the television world is from reality, this can influence us in many ways that we might not even think about. When it comes to men and women's career goals on television, women can be seen seen as somewhat strong but it would matter more if a man worked outside the home rather then the women. It is said that they are more likely to cast men for shows requiring high status or more suspenseful jobs unlike women who are more likely to work in jobs that are less prestigious and glamorous. It is very common for stereotypical roles to be played on television through restricted shows. After much research they have the tendency to see how gender plays roles in occupations. For example men are more likely to be hired in the law enforcement while a women would be hired as a secretary, although it is more likely for a women to work inside the home.
Although some single women have been working in professional jobs, it is still always going to be the stereotypical gender roles to determine a lot of things.
