Review of Boys’ Life

With my personal attempt at making a Boys’ life magazine, I wanted to oppose the stereotype of a Males exploring and doing dangerous activities by including a Female having fun and doing an extreme sports. This may shock people because you expect a man to be surfing, and not a Female.

I chose the words “Wild”, “free” and “you” because of the freedom and excitement to show and support of opposing to dominant ideology in the sense that, people picture Females staying home, out of danger and doing more practical activities and tasks. The word “you” implies that anyone can do anything and is designed to make the reader feel included and apart of the movement and targeted to feel welcome and motivated. “Free” can also show that you have no limits and you can do anything you want to do and be who you want to be.
