Reading for Monday

Please read this article (on the representation of men on the program Girls) for Monday's class and be prepared to discuss the following:

1. What is the article's thesis (i.e. what does the author want the reader to do or believe?)
2. What evidence does the author use to support his thesis?
3. Exactly who is the article's intended audience?  Think about issues of gender, race, age, income, education, and any other demographic information that comes to mind.
4. How do you know?  What choices does the author make that reveals he has a specific audience in mind?
