Success magazine presented American Ballet Dancer, Misty Copeland, on the cover of their 2020 issue. In this portrayal, Copeland defies many stereotypes that are typically identified with women through a sex role perspective.

    • In this image Copeland is both making eye contact with the audience and positioned in a way that flows and captivates the audience with her skillset. This empowers her and shows her strength and poise. In this way, she is represents an image of confidence and capability; however, these are normally traits that are associated with men rather than female figures.
