i posted the question "I want to find out what you think women's roles in film are.... and if they are just seen as sex symbols now or have gone to take on greater roles in films in more recent years?" on facebook, and got my friends to post their answers and opinions on it.
I got around 15 responses, which all pretty much agreed with each other in saying that even though before in the 19080's where women were seen as sex symbols, even today they still are, even though they seem to have greater roles in film.
People said that women are cast more in actions films today then they were before, in films such as mr and mrs smith or charlies angels, however, they said that they even use their sexuality in their parts, i.e. flirting or dressing sexy to show off their assets.
One of my friends even said that men use thier sexuality too, but it doesnt mean their not good actors, i.e. Johnny Depp and Julia Roberts, who have both been good and leading actors but are also very beautiful and sexy.
In conclusion i think that this research has been valid as it shows me that a group of opinions are really similar and all help to support the research i have done so far. Their answers sum up that progression has been made (ever since women got the vote someone pointed out) however women are still classified as sex objects, no matter how big their role is.
