- Abstract
Stereotypes refer to fixed impressions of a certain type of person, which associate with characteristics and behaviors, while gender stereotypes indicate social qualities that people have different expectations for males and females, including how they deal with matters, their personality characteristics, behavior patterns and psychological acceptance. From the West in the last century to the present, stereotypes and even sexism have continued to emerge in the advertisements of household appliances, and the views on household appliances conveyed in the advertisements remain to be considered. Although the issue is responded to by elements of society, its negative impacts cannot be underestimated. Starting from stereotypes, this article aims to analyze social stereotypes between women and household appliances based on some advertising cases, discussing relevant restrictive policies that have been introduced to mitigate the negative effects of stereotypes.
