Representation of Age



The article represents younger people as out of control and reckless - with constant partying and being drunk that is not viewed in a positive light. The article suggests that people around the teen age are generally out of control and perhaps dress in a provocative way - in order to be considered attractive. The article represents teenagers in a negative way as it creates the impression that all teenagers are out of control and also dressing a certain way to get attention.

Old - Madonna 



 This article again represents the age in a negative light, the article suggests that people above a certain age shouldn't be acting a certain way. Throughout the article, constant comments are made regarding Madonna's age and the way she acts - trying to be youthful at 55. The article implies that she is trying to hold onto her youth and tries to act youthful, however older people should just accept they are ageing. Madonna appears to be one of the only celebrities to be of a certain age and try to regain her youth. OId people are represented negatively as it suggests they are past their youth and aren't a desired category of people
