One theory that can be applied to this poster is Hooks theory. It is that women who are lighter skinned appeal more in the desirable and fit in the western society. This is seen in the poster as there are women who are seen to be revealing as they are on a beach and are of a lighter skin colour. This can also be linked to the male gaze which is Burgers theory that men look and women appear. This is seen as they are on a beach surrounded by women and they are the only men that can be seen this reinforces this stereotype that men are usually the ones who look and women always appear and dress up for men.

There is also Halls theory that the media make certain groups in the media appear in a certain way and this is done with the iLL Manors poster. With the gun being placed in the hands of the protagonist it makes those who are working class to appear to be troublesome and the ones who always cause trouble in society. It also stereotypes all young people as being wreckers and causing trouble in society, also the working class appear to be 'chavs' due to the clothes that are being worn by the protagonist.
