14.08 Elimination of Sexual Stereotyping, Full range of human characteristics and situations
All people, including women as individuals or as a group, should be treated with respect and dignity. To this end they should be depicted as living and working in a variety of circumstances and assuming a broad range of responsibilities.
- Avoid gratuitous reference to physical or other characteristics and undue emphasis on traditional roles:
Dr. and Mrs. Rolfe
or
Dr. Erica and Mr. John Brucenot
Dr. Rolfe and his charming blonde wife Dora
or
Mr. John Bruce and his doctor wife - Do not suggest that men are the norm in certain situations and women in others. Show that members of each sex are now filling roles that were traditionally the preserve of the other sex:
Parent and child
not
Mother and childPeople (or Families) are suffering increasingly from the burden of taxation.
not
Men and their families are suffering increasingly from the burden of taxation.Professionals, their spouses and their children
not
Professionals, their wives and their childrenthe average worker
or
the average wage-earner
not
the average working man - Ensure that women as a group are treated with respect, particularly in the role of homemaker. Refer to "women re-entering the work force," not to "women going back to work." Do not refer to "working women" or "working wives" in contrast to homemakers; use the expression "women working outside the home" or an equivalent.
