Desparate Housewives





Here Gabby slaps the doctor because he informs her she's pregnant. This represents her as a stereotypical emotional woman.








Lynette Scavo is represented as the earth mother, she is the motherly caring figure. The fact that she is breast feeding during a meeting shows she is always caring for others, showing she is selfless. However, the expression on her face show  its not natural for he so this is also a counter stereotype.



This is a counter stereotype because her Bree is a practical and not the man. She has to unload a gun for her husband. She is represented as the temptress, she is shown to be perfect, punctual and demestic.  



Her Susan is shown to be the damsel in distress, without a man she is insecure and scared. For example here she shoots someone in the arm because she though they were an intruder.
