Sex Role Analysis:

  • Nothing to note
    • Pretty equal this episode

Worth noting:

  • Diverse representation:
    • Bruce- the leader of AA is a gay character
  • Equal gender representation of women and men at AA
  • Resisting stereotype- Angela, Peters female boss
    • Ranking- a female boss vs the common portrayal as a male boss
    • Sexual harassment- usually women who are the ones who are sexually assaulted or harassed by men at work, but Angela is the one who sexually harasses Peter
