- Description
- The female body, with its history as an object of social control, expectation, and manipulation, is central to understanding the gendered construction of shame. Through the study of 20th-century literary texts, this publication explores the nexus of femininity, female sexuality, the female body, and shame. It demonstrates how shame structures relationships and shapes women's identities. Examining works by women authors from around the world, these essays provide an interdisciplinary and transnational perspective on the representations, theories, and powerful articulations of women's shame.

- Description
- Watts considers the ways in which gender impacts upon health in all its elements including access, technology, professionalisation, health promotion and health as an important sector of the labour market. She discusses gender as a developing and diversified category, exploring ideas about masculinity and the fluidity of gender boundaries in determining individual identity.Chapters that follow discuss ideology of gender and health and the dominant ideological association between femaleness and caring: working for health with particular focus on the gendered interplay of caring and curing roles: technology and changes to gender and healthcare: health promotion as a gendered activity and the importance of introducing an intersectional approach beyond gender to articulate a deeper understanding of health in a postmodern context.

- Description
- Muscular women have long been the focus of public scrutiny, cultural contempt and fascination. Strong female bodies have been documented as far back as 1783, for example the Victorian Strong Woman. This book interrogates the protected status of femininity as it has been rendered irrelevant to the history, theory and politics of the muscular woman. Through its analysis of femininity’s complex relationship with muscularity, it explores the larger question: What is a woman?

- Deze bundel wijdt zich onder ander aan de problematiek die ontstaat, als een vrouw denkt dat zij voor haar kinderen zowel moeder als vader moet zijn, aan het agressiepotentieel in paarrelaties, de nieuwe lichaamstechnieken van de schoonheidscommercie en tenslotte de stelling dat voor een lesbische identiteit niet alleen de direkte seksualiteit, maar ook in sterke mate de keuze voor een op vrouwen georienteerde levenswijze, doorslaggevend kan zijn.
