Media representation refers to the ways in which media portrays various social groups, events, issues, and ideas. It plays a crucial role in shaping public perceptions and societal norms. Within the framework of Media and Information Literacy (MIL), understanding media representation involves critically analyzing how identities and realities are constructed, who creates them, and whose interests are served. Media representations are never neutral; they reflect and reproduce power relations, cultural norms, and ideologies. The dimensions of media representation are multifaceted and interrelated, encompassing gender, race, class, ethnicity, age, religion, sexual orientation, disability, and more. Each of these dimensions influences how groups and individuals are portrayed, perceived, and treated in society. 1. Gender Representation One of the most prominent dimensions of media representation is gender. Media often reinforces traditional gender roles and stereotypes. For instance, women are frequently portrayed as caregivers, homemakers, or objects of desire, while men are shown as strong, rational, and dominant figures. These portrayals can be seen in advertisements, films, television shows, and news media. For example, in Bollywood films, female characters often occupy secondary roles, and their narratives revolve around male protagonists. In advertising, women are commonly depicted using beauty products or cleaning items, reinforcing the idea that their primary role lies in appearance and domesticity. However, recent years have seen a growing movement toward breaking gender stereotypes, such as Ariel's “Share the Load” campaign, which challenges domestic gender roles in Indian households. 2.
