Abstract

The study explores gender stereotypes in Nigerian advertising, focusing on their impact on societal perceptions, attitudes, and consumer buying behaviors. It uses feminist and social constructionism theory to provide a critical discourse on the issue. The study concludes that advertisers and marketers play a crucial role in influencing societal attitudes and perceptions through their campaigns. It suggests that advertisers should actively seek to represent a diverse range of gender identities, reflecting the complexity and diversity of Nigerian society. This can include showcasing individuals from different gender identities, backgrounds, and experiences, contributing to a more inclusive and representative portrayal of gender in advertising.
