About this listen

In this episode, I explore how fatherhood is represented in Turkish advertising, based on my recent article “From Heroic Masculinity to Feminist Dads: Advertising Fatherhood in Türkiye” published in the International Journal of Communication. From heroic masculinity to more progressive portrayals of caregiving dads, I discuss the shifting narratives around fatherhood in Türkiye. The episode highlights how ads reflect—and sometimes resist—patriarchal and conservative values. Tune in for a critical look at how masculinity, media, and politics intersect in commercial culture.
