- Description
- “Hippie women” have alternately been seen as earth mothers or love goddesses, virgins or vamps. Gretchen Lemke-Santangelo corrects the stereotypes by describing how women experienced and shaped the counterculture. She draws on the personal recollections of women who were there—including such pivotal figures as Lenore Kendall, Diane DiPrima, and Carolyn Adams—to gain insight into what made counterculture women tick, how they lived their days, and how they envisioned their lives. She argues that, despite the embrace of traditional roles, counterculture women claimed power by virtue of gender difference and revived an older agrarian ideal that assigned greater value to female productive labor. she also shows how women helped counterculture practices move into the mainstream, helping transform middle-class attitudes toward everything from spirituality to child rearing to the environment. With photos and poster art.

- Description
- This study places African American women's stardom in historical contexts by examining the star personae of five African American women: Dorothy Dandridge, Pam Grier, Whoopi Goldberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Halle Berry. Interpreting each woman's celebrity as predicated on a brand of charismatic authority, Mask shows how these female stars have ultimately complicated the conventional discursive practices through which blackness and womanhood have been represented in commercial cinema, independent film, and network television. She considers Dandridge's status as a sexual commodity in films such as Tamango, revealing the contradictory discourses regarding race and sexuality in segregation-era American culture. Grier's feminist-camp performances in sexploitation pictures Women in Cages and The Big Doll House highlight a similar tension between representing African American women as both objectified stereotypes and powerful, self-defining icons. Mask reads Goldberg's transforming habits in Sister Act and The Associate as representative of her unruly comedic routines, while Winfrey's daily television performance as self-made, self-help guru echoes narratives of success. Finally, Mask analyzes Berry's success by acknowledging the ways in which Dandridge's career made Berry's possible.

- Description
- Rhode analyzes the challenges the feminist movement faces today.She focuses on five main topics: employment issues such as pay discrimination, work-life balance and the government's pitiful response, the assault on women's reproductive rights and the limits it places on their economic mobility, sexual harassment and violence, and the detrimental effect that the unfashionable label 'feminist' can have, especially in attracting young women to the movement. Despite these obstacles, Rhode thinks that the goals and principles of feminism are widely accepted by the American mainstream.

- Description
- This collection of essays, written by musicologists and ethnomusicologists, provide a cross-cultural and cross-historical view of the roles women have played as creators and performers and the representation of women in world, popular, and western art music. Organized in five sections, the readings deal with a broad spectrum of topics and approaches about women, gender, and sexuality in music across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas from the twelfth century to the present. Included are themes as class and sexual politics in domestic and professional music making, the sequestration of female musical performance, the lament, gender identity through performance, and women singers as empowered voices of the people.

- Description
- Naar aanleiding van internationale vrouwendag op acht maart 2007 een aantal artikelen over de positie van vrouwen. Staatssecretaris van Defensie Cees van der Knaap vertelt onder andere over vrouwen in de krijgsmacht. China, het land dat het wereldleiderschap verkiest, kent traditioneel een zeer vrouwvijandige mentaliteit. Mede door het één-kindpolitiek is de man-vrouwbalans ver zoek. Verwacht wordt dat in 2020 dertig miljoen mannen in de huwbare leeftijd gedwongen vrijgezel zullen blijven en dat vijf jaar later al tien procent van de Chinese mannen buiten de boot zal vallen. De Britse schrijfster Rachel Cusk beschrijft in haar romans het eigentijds vrouwelijk onbehagen. Ségolène Royal wil de eerste vrouwelijke president van Frankrijk worden. Haar campagne is echter in het slop geraakt. Mannelijkheid in vrouwen lijkt te worden gewaardeerd. Vrouwen zijn seksueel vrijgevochten, ondanks het verschil dat er gemaakt wordt tussen een slet en een flinke jongen bij dezelfde mate van promiscue gedrag. De Amerikaanse journaliste Ariel Levy trekt met haar 'Female chauvinist pigs: women and the rise of the raunch culture' dit onderwerp weer terug in het debat. Aan de basis van haar analyse staat de seksualisering van de westerse samenleving, waarin porno een publieke aangelegenheid is geworden. Ingegaan wordt ook op het hedendaagse feminisme en waar het zich anno 2007 moet bezig houden.
