Susan Patton, Gender, and Princetonian Marriage - 59 views

I am interested in exploring Patton's commodifcation of women when she says "we(women) have almost priced ourselves out of the market." How is it related to the popular consumer culture?

I am studying the online culture of Harry Potter fanfiction because I want to find out what motivates young readers to produce such work about literature for fun.

[Abstract] Most colleges and universities emphasize identifying smartness much more than developing smartness. This value is made explicit in the many influential rankings of colleges and universities, in which elitist schools who recruit students with high SAT scores, grade point averages, and class rankings are declared "better" than other schools. The pursuit of high academic rankings (a) often is accompanied by a disdain for underprepared students who lower a school's ranking and (b) often contradicts the alleged desire to promote educational opportunities for groups of students who are placed at a strong disadvantage by factors such as SAT scores.

This book by Bonnie Dow--Prime-Time Feminism: Television, Media, Culture, and the Women's Movement since 1970--has a first chapter on the Mary Tyler Moore Show and "lifestyle feminism." I think that I may need to do more research on the history of feminism in order to understand this book and its arguments, but I'm really interested in that as well!
