The pop culture reference that I have chosen was Glee. Some of the characters and events that have occurred in this TV show I think relate really well to the theme of gender issues. The articles that I have found are about the new guy in glee, Wade aka Unique and the bias of the series about gay romance. In glee he is crossed-dressed and he had to change school because he wanted to be unique and express himself the way he wanted to. I think Wade and Kurt are a few character that can be related to the theme of gender because there have been so many gender issues in the show Glee. I think this relates to the theme of gender because these characters try to fit in and try to be as equal as all the other people. This is just like when Banquo said that the witches are supposed to be ladies but they are not because they have a beard or when Lady Macbeth wants to become more manly because men are way stronger. This is like saying that being feminine is not okay and therefore every man has to be strong.
