Family Feud feud is goin dowwnwn
The issue of feminism as an exclusive plight for women has come into light since a recent screening of Family Feud. Two questions were asked on the show; firstly, “Name something people think is a womans job” and secondly “name something people think is a man’s job”.
The results for the female question ranged from domestic duties, receptionists, hairdresser and nursing. This caused viewers to react angrily on social media, causing the show to be branded as ‘misogynistic’ and reaffirming that sexism was alive and well in Australian society.
In defence, Network Ten explained that the results are determined by a database of 100 samples, acknowledging that the limited responses are not reflective of ‘all Australians’. However, even if this limited sample base was not reflective of ‘all Australians’, the contestants managed to get all the answers correct.
I decided to explore more on the controversy. I immediately became fired-up for women’s rights after watching the footage, now loaded on the Sydney Morning Heralds official website.

It was only until the last few seconds of the report that addressed a similar situation occurred for the men. On further research, the majority of online feature articles were female-sympathetic, and restricted highlighting male stereotyping.

The majority of articles addressed the issue of sexism, but were female focussed. Granted, the issue of feminism is a current topic, and when considering the everyday struggles between men and women, it would be naive to avoid recognising that women have received the short stick for most of history, therefore any discrimination towards women today often faces a large backlash. However, males were also equally stigmatised from this show. There were two questions, and two genders were stereotyped. Only one received focus. This is a dangerous pattern, because it excuses males from the feminist movement. We should all know by now, Dat ain’t wat its abowt.
