OUTLINE FOR RESEARCH # 1
Preliminary Thesis: YEAR OF THE METRO/ROCK MEN.
I.1st supporting point: content of the June edition of GQ men’s magazine supports metro/rock sexuality
A. types of shorts and how its recommended to be worn
1. an actor with journalist surrounding him at a beach.
2.A strong example was made out of our own late President JFK.
B. since the invention of metro sexuality, I believe a code of dressing came with it or is being improved from time to time on what looks appropriate on a metro man as compared to other masculinities not paying any detailed attention to that.
1. Disagreement on other ways of shorts wearing and the approval of GQ on the right way to wear
II. 2nd supporting point: metro meets rock in the September and November editions
A. inclusion of rock masculinity in ads as I have on display on sport coaches and Canada goose parkas
1.metro and rock touch concealed in the characteristics expected of modern coaches
2. as the article is saying, the parkas can fit for a casual walk down the street and yet a metro/rock man would use this parkas in a ways the fits best be it be it casual or smart which will show some sort of double bind in a rock/metro sexuality.
B. In a game like football, it is obvious that there is no time to think of looks when it comes to a game of such nature but the men this generation are encouraged to be conscious of their looks
III. 3rd supporting point: constant promotion of metro/rock encouragements.
A. Analysis of December GQ men’s magazine from front cover to page of Kenneth Cole ad.
transformation of men in need of dressing tutorials since the age of metro masculinity is here now and a lot of
B.some ads like the Breitling watch, keeps showing up in other subscriptions of the same magazine and other magazines alike.
C. The character in the ad, if known should be related to his personality or what he is known for. And in this case John Travolta is no stranger to the metro world and his movies showing his rocky side.
I’ve covered this in class and discussed it with you individually. Your thesis needs to be formulated as a claim- In 2008 GQ was promoting a metro/rock masculinity because… Your secondary sources need to provide the reason/reasons for this claim. Your main points simply summarize your sources??? You are asked to look and think about your 4 primary sources and develop MAIN POINTS which you will make in your body paragraphs to support your thesis. Your primary sources are EXAMPLES of your main points. Then you need secondary sources to analyze your examples and main points.
