This paper utilizes discourse analysis to examine what kind of domestic discourses are embedded in the content of the cooking-related TV advertisements broadcasted in the postfeminist media culture from the year of 2000 to the present and what kind of strategies the advertisers employ to persuade female consumers. The study finds that the meanings of doing cooking, doing gender and family are interrelated. The dominant domestic discourse is still quite conservative, not only maintaining the boundary between the public sphere and the private sphere and a gender-based division of labor but also emphasizing the emotional character of middle-class families.
