Why Are All TV Dads Always Wrong?
September 4th 2010 03:55
Say what you want about sexism on television and stereotypes - but folks it cuts both ways!
Take the TV dad//husband for example.
From Al Bundy through to Gomez Addams, Homer Simpson and Archie Bunker - the TV husband as generally been protrayed as earnestly believing he is in charge of his own household - only to be found wanting by the equally stereotypical all knowing, all caring yet completely understated wife.
Lazy writing? Perhaps.
Real life? Perhaps.
