Male Gender Representation

In a super hero movie the characteristics that most male characters share are as follows :-

- Dominant over female characters

- Usually main character

- Really Muscular (with some exceptions)

- Heros tend to be good looking whereas the enemies aren't good looking

In super hero films the male characters tend to be really rich and have advanced technology

As you can see from the image above, there are 5 main male characters and only 1 main female character, this shows that the inequality between males and females are still present in movies nowhere days. Personally i feel that this is the case because of the typical male figure compared to the female figure. Males stereotypically have larger muscles, broader shoulders and look all round far more powerful and superior than a female character. This could explain why most victims in films are stereotypically female.
