Abstract

The article shows that the gender-marked English-language network discourse can be represented as the Internet memes (textual units with indefinite subjectivity and short receptive phase addressed to universal audience). It is shown that gender nature of the Internet meme can manifest itself in different ways. The gender Internet meme is characterized by diffusion of its formal and (or) ontological boundaries. Such a feature of gender Internet memes is actualized only within the analysed subset while unveiling gender discourse, which in its turn is determined by limological parameters.
