Deconstructing Soaps

Is there any positive representation?

Yes the character Jacqui McQueen is a very fiesty individual and is very horrible to men as she has very little respect for them. This is an example of positive representation as it shows that she is challenging men and standing up for herself instead of being needy and male reliant.

Is there any negative representation?

Yes, I feel that the majority of the female character in this soap are represented very negatively as they constantly rely on men a great deal and are not very career- driven individuals. Particularly the McQueen household.
