Feminism and television
By media girl
As the most powerful popular culture medium over the past 50 years, television has been a primary influence on how we, as a society, view women. What is a woman's role in our society? What are the traits of powerful women? How has feminism affected and responded to portrayals of women on television? How has popular television presented feminism to the general public?
These posts address television in general and/or in ways that do not fit neatly into the other categories that also address the television medium.

My blog reviews TV, movies, music, and books, and isn't strictly concerned with putting a feminist spin on everything. But, if I notice something worth mentioning in that regard, it comes up.
Here are a few links to recent postings which fit this topic:

Very interesting posts. (I've not seen those shows, so can't really respond to specifics.)
Welcome to media girl!
I've been trying to post here but I guess I haven't worked it all out technically yet! :/
Anyway I have a paper I've written about desire, the body and sex and the city located at: http://www.personal.edfac.usyd.edu.au/staff/thomasa/Sex_and_...
It's currently under review and is subject to alterations, but any feedback is most welcome.
Thanks,
Anya / Angela
