The Relationship Between the Concepts of “Gender”, “Gender Identity” and “Gender Display”

Abstract

This study is devoted to identifying the specific ways of linguistic representation of women and men in English-language mass media based on articles about gender. This problem is considered from a linguocultural perspective. As linguocultural aspects of language are increasingly becoming objects of research, and, secondly, the practical and social need to understand the media as one of the main resources of power, which promotes social values, approves norms and patterns of behavior and shape’s public opinion. In this regard, the study of the linguistic representation of gender in the discourse of English-language media is of particular value.
