Some address terms due to their gender distinctive functions refer either to men or women; however, as it has been observed the variability in the choice of some address forms or references are more or less due to the social status and values of the interactants in the target stories. For example, male characters would address their counter parts with their first names and the pronoun /tou/, but the female characters would address their counter part more politely with their last names with the title or the pronoun /shoma/. This article thus tends to consider the socio-pragmatic functions of address terms such as the first name, the last name, the address pronouns, the special titles, and the kinship terms. The findings indicate that the major factor affecting the choice of the address terms is based on the gender bias of the interactants.This article aims to explore the role of the gender bias in the choice of address terms in some Iranian contemporary stories.

It seems that the ruling ideology of the dominant gender discourse is to construct and use the self-made gender view that preserves its interests. This view deeply exerts its impact on the individuals’ social identity, therefore, we are going to analyze the dominance and the effects of this concept in the subjective subconscious and gender discourse of the Iranian society. The present study exploits the theoretical point of view of Michel Foucault and Norman Fairclough’s methodological approach to discursively analyze the stories published in Persian popular magazines during the year 1386. So, the findings of each text were analyzed with regard to the basic concepts of dominance, subversion and unconscious mind. The results indicate that individual attitudes, especially among women, are influenced by the unconsciousness affected by the dominant gender discourse demands. Therefore, they don’t act according to their demands and beliefs, but in consistence with the ruling gender discourse which uses them as a tool to reproduce the current situation.The distinguished gender language of the dominant gender discourse in the social atmosphere of Iran, as one of the most influential phenomenon determining the linguistic and non-linguistic actions of individuals, has been appeared in the popular magazines.
