Abstract
The evolution of television viewers' consumption habits explains the renewal of their interests as objects of study. One of the current trends is the production of original contents by VoD streaming platforms, where fiction series starring teenagers stand out. This paper analyzes the representation of teenage characters belonging to the LGTBIQ+ community in a Netflix original series, Sex Education. This series stands out for the diversity in the typology of its characters. The results conclude that even if the intention of the series is to represent diversity in the characters' identities, the series is based on presenting stereotypes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
The feminization of nouns denoting professions and positions held by women is a gradual process that is influenced by different areas: linguistic, social and institutional. The media reflect a daily variation that occurs between the resources used for the formation of the feminine gender of nouns of this type. In this paper we have analyzed the way this phenomenon is manifested in the field of journalism, which is the filter for general linguistic habits and one of the main references for shaping the current purism. To achieve this objective we have selected a representative group of professions, with particular emphasis on the analysis of those cases where linguistic variation was found and comparing the results obtained with their lexicographic treatment.
