In today's Podcast, we will be looking at Disney Film, in particular Marvel films, These films have introduced many loving characters that everyone cherishes. They represent much more than meets the eye, many of these character's symbolize the defiance of social gender roles, female empowerment and the ideology of change over time. We will be talking about two different character today, Iron man (Tony Stark) and Black Widow (Natasha Romanav), who play a big role on the Marvel franchise but as well symbolize a society that is slowly relinquishing gender roles and breaking the perception that a man are only defined by their physical traits.
