Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

 Irrelevant sexualization uses women's bodies in sexual ways in an attempt to attract attention or to use a woman's or man's sexuality to sell products, such as is common with Abercrombie & Fitch advertising campaigns.
 Infantilization presents women as childish, coy, silly, passive, or vulnerable. This is in contrast to men who are commonly portrayed as strong, confident, assertive, and serious.
 Domestication defines women in relationship to their husbands, boyfriends, or the man to whom they are attracted. Even if the female TV character works outside of the home environment, she is typically shown interacting in her home relationships and not in her work environment.
 Distortion of female body image is seen in the increasingly thinner and thinner females portrayed in prime-time television, such as the lead actresses in the ABC hit series, Desperate Housewives.
 Victimization portrays women as victims of violent acts or as victims of female and male brutality.
